Fiorentina rival Inter Milan for Arsenal's wantaway Podolski

Fiorentina are joining the battle for Arsenal attacker Lukas Podolski.

The London Evening Standard says the Arsenal forward attracted interest from Serie A last summer but in the end stayed in north London, despite interest from Juventus.

Juve have since moved on but both Inter - who are also exploring a loan move for Gunners striker Joel Campbell - and Fiorentina are considering an offer for Podolski, 29, in January.

Podolski's contract expires at the end of next season and he has scored one goal in eight appearances for Arsenal this season.

The German attacker confirmed this week that he could seek to leave Arsenal.
