After Fenerbahce Istanbul signed the former German national soccer player Mesut Özil, the club announced concrete figures for the transfer.

The club pays Özil three million euros per season - but only from the next season, as a statement by Fenerbahce to the stock exchange on Monday.

At Arsenal FC, Özil was one of the top earners.

His weekly salary is said to have been just under 350,000 euros.
