​Confirmation from Galatasaray over interest for Arsenal striker Podolski

Galatasaray have confirmed they are keen to sign Arsenal striker Lukas Podolski this summer.

Galatasaray sporting director Cüneyt Tanman said: "We are interested in Podolski."

In a recent interview, the former Bayern Munich star revealed he wouldn't rule out a move to Turkey should the opportunity arise.

He said: "If an offer comes from Turkey, I will sit down and talk about it with my family and girlfriend.

"If I find the right club, the right coach, the right environment, I will evaluate it. If these conditions are met, I think everything is possible.

"The next transfer could be my last, so I have to take a well-thought step."
