Lukas Podolski told to stay at Arsenal

German international forward Lukas Podolski has been told that he must stay at Arsenal. The World Cup winner has yet to feature regularly for his team this campaign.

Manager Arsene Wenger has reportedly told Podolski that he must wait for his chance in the first team, as Danny Welbeck continues to play as preferred striker for the Gunners. With the returning Olivier Giroud and Theo Walcott already back in action, Podolski is likely to find opportunities very limited.
