The 2 countries which he mentioned in his tweet are Turkey and the USA. He also mentions the Turkish giants, Fenerbahce, as the “only” club he would join from Turkey.

The main club in the race for Ozil’s signature is Fenerbahce, a club which Ozil has already expressed his interests to play for. He even goes as far as to say Fenerbahce is like the “Real Madrid of Turkey”.
If Ozil does not find the path away from the Gunners, He will become a free agent, when his contract expires this summer, so the Arsenal board are eager to get some sort of a deal, rather than letting go of Ozil for free.

“I enjoyed that time a lot and thought we [were] really on a positive way. But after the break things unfortunately change”
