Lukas Podolski says 'hell will freeze over' before he goes to Tottenham

Arsenal striker Lukas Podolski has not grabbed a single start for his team in the Premier League this season, which has some wondering if he may not be with the team for much longer. That line of thinking was furthered by a recent report that Tottenham were looking to acquire the German via a £10 million transfer bid.

Arsenal striker Lukas Podolski has not grabbed a single start for his team in the Premier League this season, which has some wondering if he may not be with the team for much longer. That line of thinking was furthered by a recent report that Tottenham were looking to acquire the German via a £10 million transfer bid.

Podolski does not think there is much to the rumor though and he used his official Twitter account to let fans and transfer speculators know he was staying with the team in no uncertain terms.

@BBCSport @Arsenal Hell will freeze over before this transfer would happen. #Poldi #aha #AlwaysAGunner #NeverCheatYourClub #AFC #Redarmy

While he might not be getting much of an opportunity on the pitch, Podolski is doing everything he can to keep fans fired up, especially for their always heated rivalry with Tottenham.
