Podolski gives no guarantees over Arsenal stay

Lukas Podolski has hinted he may leave Arsenal before his contract expires in 2016 because he is not playing regularly enough, reports The Guardian. "I am a full-blooded player, a street player and I love competition," the 29-year-old told RTL television.

"If I don't have this competition every weekend then a change must occur."

The German international did not feature in Arsenal's 4-1 win over Galatasaray in the Champions League on Wednesday where again he was an unused substitute and has yet to find the net this season.

"We will have to see. But it is certainly something one has to think about," he said when asked if he would see out his deal with the Gunners.
