Klinsmann Confirms Podolski Stance

Bayern Munich trainer Jürgen Klinsmann has once again moved to repeat his stance that striker Lukas Podolski is not for sale and is very much part of his plans for the coming season.

The 23 year old German international has been continuously linked with a move away from the Bavarian club with his former club Cologne reportedly ready to pounce should Bayern be ready to sell.

However, new Bayern trainer Klinsmann has reiterated his stance that Podolski isn’t for sale and that he is very much in the running for the forthcoming Bundesliga season.

“The sale of Podolski does not come in any way into the question. We need at least three top strikers - and Lukas is one of the three” Klinsmann said Klinsmann.

“He has a duty to challenge the other two (Miroslav Klose and Luca Toni), to provide them with competition. Lukas will get his games” he added.

Klinsmann had earlier vowed to help Podolski make the step up to the next level in career and become the world-class striker he has so often threatened to become.

“I told him what I told him before the European Championships: that he has a lot of talent, that he has already shown a lot in his young years, but also that he still has some more steps to take in order to become better.

“I would like to and will help him with that.”
