PodolskiLukas Podolski could well be on his way out of Arsenal this January, with Juventus and Inter Milan both keen to sign the out-of-favour striker.

The German international has struggled to cement a regular role in the Arsenal side since his move from Cologne two years ago.

The 29-year-old has only managed to feature four times so far this season for Arsenal, with three of those appearances coming off from the bench.

Although a fan favourite, Podolski is considering his future at the Emirates and may opt to a move away when the January transfer window opens.

Juventus have confirmed their interest in the forward, with CEO Giuseppe Marotta recently admitting:

‘If there is a possibility in January to move on the transfer market [for Podolski] we will do that.’

Inter Milan are also thought to be interested in the German and with the arrival of Alexis Sanchez and Danny Welbeck this summer, Podolski has dropped further down the pecking order at the Emirates and will see even less time on the pitch than he did last season.

His contract is up in 2016, but if he is not in Arsene Wenger’s plans, which looks the case, then the boss should consider moving the player on rather than not utilize him.
