Mesut Ozil attends Mortal Kombat 11 launch alongside Chris Eubank Jr

An array of sports stars attended the Mortal Kombat 11 reveal event at KOKO – London on Thursday evening. 

Arsenal’s Mesut Ozil took a break from his team’s Chelsea preparations to trial the game which will be available to buy in April. 

The German is currently out of favour at the Emirates Stadium, and AC Milan are considering a move for the midfielder.

The 30-year-old is believed to have left Milan chief executive Ivan Gazidis and sporting strategy & development director Paolo Maldini at loggerheads. 

It is understood that the former Arsenal chief executive does not want to bring Ozil to the club, while Maldini is adamant that Milan should recruit a player of his quality.

Chris Eubank Jr, who is in training ahead of his February 23 bout with James DeGale, also found time to appear at the launch. 

The Brighton-born boxer is looking to defeat the former IBF World Super Middleweight champion at the 02 Arena, in hope of gaining a world title shot.

Another sporting star who appeared at the launch was judo Olympic gold medallist Teddy Riner, who was seen shaking hands with fellow martial artist Gustaffsson.

The eleventh instalment of the fighting game, which follows the television and comic book series, will be available on XBOX One, Playstation 4 and Nintendo Switch.
