LUKAS PODLOSKI JOINS ARSENAL.

The German striker Lukas Podloski , who is of Polish descent like Miraslav Klose. Has now decided to join Arsenal from the German club Cologne. He joins for 10 million pounds, as he is very good and proven striker in Germany , Arsene Wenger got him cheap . The sale was confirmed much earlier by the press.But both the clubs strongly denied it.The reason was the German club was fighting relegation and were seventeenth in the table. And the clubs did not want to anger their loyal fans, with this shocking news. The big question is will this one buy by Arsenal do to keep Robin Van Persie? This was a very good buy indeed, as he is only 26 years old and ten million pounds was a bargain. Manchester City and Chelsea would have happily paid 35 million pounds for the same player.
