Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil has taken to social media to reach out and wish his former teammate Luka Modric a happy birthday.

Mordic turned 31 earlier this week and used to play alongside Ozil when the Germany international was a Real Madrid player.

Ozil shared a picture of the duo in training along with the caption, “Sending you many happy wishes today! All the best.”
