Cologne striker Lukas Podolski has revealed that he would prefer a move away from the Bundesliga.
The 26-year-old has been linked with a switch away from the German club in the January transfer window, including rumours of a possible transfer to Arsenal.
"I find it very difficult to imagine changing to another club in the Bundesliga," he told Sport Bild.
"If I leave Cologne, joining a foreign club appeals to me.
"When I look at the inquiries already received I am looking to see if the club plays international or Champions League football."
Podolski's current contract expires in 2013.
