There must be a reason Real let him go?
And if he had that choice again in January do you think he would go there now?
Madrid let him go, because Isco was the new flavour of the month and they wanted to raise money to buy Bale. Ozil, Bale and Ronaldo can all play behind the front three, but Madrid wanted a new focus. At Madrid it is never just about how well you play, but about being the biggest name, marketing and image. All summer I have been saying that Ozil was going to leave despite the constant denials from player and club, because that's what Madrid do.
In 2009 they sold Robben, who maybe now people won't laugh at it considering his recent form, was the third best player in the world. They have sold Solari after winning player of the season, sold Makalele, sold Cambiasso, sold Sneijder etc.
Of course he would not touch United now. Ozil was desperate in the summer, because Chelsea/City/Bayern did not want that kind of player and only Arsenal, United and PSG had champions league and the money to afford him. At the time United was the obvious choice and he let it be known.
Madrid is probably the best club top club to go to for bargains.
EDIT
Madrid are the club who did not buy Ronaldinho because he was too ugly.
The club who despite being stocked with attacking players and weak at the back chose Beckham over both Nesta and Cannavaro.
