Joachim Low: 'Lukas Podolski should consider options'

Germany manager Joachim Low has revealed that Lukas Podolski should consider other options from Arsenal.

The striker has already voiced his discontent at his current situation with the Gunners, and Low now insists that the player needs more first-team football.

"He has to think about his situation. I'm still convinced about his abilities, but he needs high intensity," the 54-year-old said, according to Sky Sports News.

"I'm aware he doesn't play a lot right now for Arsenal. He needs to play competitive games. Sometimes he lacks the physical condition to play the full 90 minutes."

Podolski has only played 11 times for Arsenal in all competitions this season and has hinted at a possibility of an exit in January to seek consistent first-team football.
