Podolski hints at Arsenal U-turn


Doubts have emerged over the expected transfer of Lukas Podolski to Arsenal, with the player revealing he would be tempted by a move to Lazio.

Podolski was strongly linked to a £10.9 million switch to Arsenal, with several British national newspapers even claiming the Germany forward had undergone a medical. It was expected that the only issue left to resolve was a proposed four-year £100,000-per-week deal.

However, the move is still in doubt now since Lazio involved. Klose became a major factor in a potential deal of Podolski.

Klose joined Lazio in the summer and has scored 12 times this season in Serie A, and when Podolski was quizzed over the prospect of joining up with his countrymen, he confessed he would be tempted.

"It would be great to play alongside him again, Miro has spoken well of Lazio and he's happy in Rome. My future has yet to be decided," Podolski told Corriere dello Sport.
