Arsenal are just seven days away from resuming their Premier League campaign.

The Gunners visit Manchester City next Wednesday in the first game of Project Restart.

It’ll also be Arsenal’s first match since March 7 – a 1-0 win over West Ham United – due to the global health crisis.

One player who’s fired up for next week’s trip to the Etihad is Mesut Ozil, it seems.

The former Germany international posted a video of himself in training earlier today – and here’s how Arsenal fans responded to their playmaker on Twitter.

Ozil had been showing promising signs of consistency before the season was shut down, and scored in a 4-0 win over Newcastle United a couple of weeks before the hiatus.

If Mikel Arteta’s side get anything off City next week, the former Real Madrid and Werder Bremen maestro could play a big role in it – if he turns up, that is.
