The Daily Mail newspaper is reporting that Arsenal midfielder Mesut Özil is thought to have been questioned by police about an incident when a car he was driving hit a photographer.
The incident supposedly occurred in Highgate north London on Friday night.
A spokesperson for the metropolitan police said: “Police were called at approximately 7.18pm on Friday 21 February to reports of an alleged collision between a vehicle and a member of the public in Sheldon Avenue N6.
“The member of the public, a man in his thirties, sustained minor injuries. Officers have spoken to the driver of the vehicle.”
The police spokesperson went on to say that enquiries were continuing, and that no arrests have been made.
The German playmaker Mesut Özil joined Arsenal last summer for a club record fee of £42.5m from Real Madrid.
