Arsenal to offload World Cup winner in January

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger will allow the sale of German international Lukasz Podolski in January, as he tries to lower the club's wage structure.

The Gunners currently have the highest wage structure in the Premier League, and Wenger is keen on selling off the club's out-of-favour players in order to reduce the bill.

According to The Metro, the North London outfit will look to cash in on the 29-year-old, with several Bundesliga clubs interested in his services.

Podolski played during Arsenal's 2-1 defeat at the hands of Southampton in the League Cup in midweek.
