Arsenal's Lukas Podolski: 'I'm not worried about potential new arrivals'

Arsenal striker Lukas Podolski has revealed that he is not worried that the potential arrival of Gonzalo Higuain could limit his first-team opportunities.

The Argentine has been heavily linked with a move to Gunners this summer, with reports suggesting a deal to bring the 25-year-old to the Emirates Stadium.

Podolski told The Sun: "It is always good when good players come in. I don't worry about a specific player. And it is certainly not a problem.

"I am strong enough and I have qualities. And when good players come in, I will play with good players.

"Every season players come in and players go. But I think it is good news if top players come in."

Podolski scored 16 goals in his first season with Arsenal after joining the club last summer for £11m from Cologne.
