It is being reported that Arsenal and Koln have reached an agreement over the transfer of German international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lukas-Podolski-c22896 and that the player is going to be heading to the Emirates at the end of the current season.
According to a number of German publications, both Arsenal and Koln have settled on a deal which would see Podolski make the move to the North London club, once the current season comes to an end.
The forward was set to be without a contract in 2013, but despite that fact, Arsenal are reportedly willing to pay as much as thirteen million Euros for the attackers transfer.
Podolski has been linked with a move to the Emirates for nearly three seasons now, but it seems like he could potentially be on his way to the Premier League this time around.
The attacker has claimed that life at the German club is not what he expected it to be and that he is looking to develop on a personal level from now on.
It was believed that the twenty six year old forward went on to agree personal terms with the Gunners last season and the way things are shaping up, he could be headed to London in the near future.
Arsenal’s current German international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Per-Mertesacker-c29680 has admitted that he has contacted Podolski about the possibility of moving to Arsenal on a number of occasions and believes that the striker could end up making the move.
Mertesacker, when talking about the potential of Podolski joining http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 is quoted to have said: "He has been very interested in the past few weeks, and has sent me a number of text messages"
"I've told him that this is a great place to work and that Arsenal are an amazing club."
With all the signs pointing towards Podolski heading to the Emirates, it is now going to be a long wait till the end of the season to see whether this move actually goes through or not.
However, should it take place, Arsenal could finally have someone to assist http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380 up front, as they look to end their trophy drought this coming season.
