Would surprise me if he left before the summer. Surely not without his loyalty bonus...
It would be great though.

He’s 33 soon, no top clubs make such investments. Only Arsenal do actually, our club signed washed up trash like Willian and Luiz from bitter rivals, Arsenal fans loved it too.If he does ultimately end up at a second rate club like Fenerbahçe I'm looking forward to the conspiracy theories about how China blackballed Barca/ PSG etc from signing such a great player

He turned 32 in October, he's not old. If he was anywhere close to the player his fans still think he is the biggest clubs around would be taking him on a 12 month deal.
Like I said, top clubs rarely make such investments. You couldn’t give me a list. Most players this age go to America or a smaller league.
Those are very rare cases, two great strikers in an era where there is a lack of CF options and the market is affected by COVID.Just off the top of my head this summer, Cavani and Luis Suarez both made moves to big clubs for free / nominal fees at 33/ 34 years old.
Most players are still in their primes or at least the tail end of it at 32.

If he was at a different club but in a similar situation, this forum would be gagging for him, I know that.
Zlatan, Ronaldo and the like are freaks. It’s why I didn’t want Willian, such transfer carry huge risks, he looks crap for us and he still had 3 years on his deal.I don't think it's rare at all these days, not for top players anyway. Zlatan has been doing the rounds of big European clubs for 3-4 years and he's pushing 40.
It's not like Özil has ever been particularly reliant on his physical attributes either. Having just turning 32 he shouldn't be anywhere near ready for the retirement home yet in my view, if he's anywhere near the player his fans still think he is.
