Two men who attacked Arsenal's Mesut Ozil and Sead Kolasinac are charged

Two men have been arrested outside Mesut Ozil's house in connection with the security threats causing two Arsenal stars to miss their Premier League opener at Newcastle .

Ozil and team-mate Sead Kolasinac were the victims of an attempted car-jacking last month and the Gunners announced on Friday that both would not travel to Newcastle due to "further security incidents" that were being investigated by police.

According to The Telegraph , two men were seized by police on Thursday night after becoming involved in an altercation with security staff who have been guarding Ozil's home in north London.


A statement from the Metropolitan Police said: "Two men have been charged under Section 4a of the Public Order Act following an incident in Camden on Thursday, 8 August.

"Ferhat Ercan, 27, of Highgate, and Salaman Ekinci, 27, of Tottenham , were charged on August 9 following the incident and are due to appear at Highbury Corner magistrates’ court on 6 September."
