Sead Kolasinac confirmed he and Mesut Ozil are “fine” in a light-hearted update after the Arsenal team-mates were targeted in an apparent carjacking attempt in London.
Footage emerged on Thursday showing Kolasinac confronting two attackers who approached a vehicle driven by Ozil.
The masked individuals were seen wielding weapons, which were alleged to be knives.
Kolasinac referenced the incident as he shared a photo of the pair laughing in a post to social media.
“Think we’re fine,” the Bosnia and Herzegovina international wrote in the caption, which included an emoji of a clenched fist and smiling face.
“Thanks for your messages!”
Ozil and Kolasinac escaped unharmed by driving to a nearby restaurant.
A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said: “It was reported that suspects on motorbikes had attempted to rob a man who was driving a car.
“The driver, along with his passenger, managed to get away unharmed and travelled to a restaurant in Golders Green, where they were spoken to by officers.
“There have been no arrests. Enquiries continue.”
