Werder Bremen general manager Klaus Allofs has warned potential suitors that Mesut Ozil will play for the club in the Champions League on Wednesday evening unless a deal is agreed in the next 24 hours.

The 21-year-old Germany international playmaker, who starred at the World Cup finals earlier this summer, is known to be keen to join Real Madrid, with interest from the likes of Barcelona and Manchester United having seemingly cooled.

However, Allofs has warned that Bremen will not part with their star player easily.

He told the Deutsche Presseagentur: "The facts are pretty clear. If a club is looking to sign Mesut to play Champions League, then that club needs to make a decision before Wednesday.

"If Mesut Ozil is a player of Werder Bremen on Wednesday, we are going to play him against Sampdoria.

"We have not lined up any plan to not do that for whatever reason.

"It would be up to Real Madrid to show up with the right answer to this all."
