Your support makes all the difference.Lukas Podolski has officially completed his loan move to Inter Milan, the Arsenal website has confirmed.
The German forward, 29, had been in Italy over the weekend and was expected to complete a move this week after undergoing a medical. Podolski, who won the World Cup last summer, will join former Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini until the end of the season.
Podolski scored 31 goals in 82 matches for Arsenal after arriving at the club from Cologne in the summer of 2012.
He has scored three goals this season but has started just two matches, making a further 11 appearances from the bench.
A short statement on the club website read: "Everyone at Arsenal would like to wish Lukas the best for his time in Serie A."
Speaking earlier today, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger said: "He is going to Inter Milan on loan. We got a decent agreement and of course I have so many options up front that he was frustrated will not getting a chance in the team, which you can understand at his age.”
