The transfer of Mesut Özil from Real Madrid to Arsenal on the last day of the transfer window was initially believed to be motivated by the competition with Gareth Bale. However, reports surfaced suggesting that Özil’s private life was also a factor, with his involvement with Aida Yespica, a former Miss Venezuela, allegedly causing tensions.
According to reports, Özil fell for Aida Yespica, and his personal life started to become a distraction. Real Madrid president, Florentino Perez, claimed that Özil was obsessed with women and engaged in long nights, prompting the club to deny his request for a salary increase.
However, Aida Yespica refuted these claims, stating that she met Özil two years ago and that their relationship was more of a beautiful friendship. She clarified that Özil is now engaged to Mandy Capristo, a German-Italian singer, and she is also engaged to financier Roger Jenkis. Yespica denied any involvement in Özil’s departure from Real Madrid, emphasizing that their relationship was a friendship and that she has no plans to live with him in London.
