| Roma in pole for Podolski |

Juventus are being tipped to challenge Roma for the signature of Lukas Podolski, but the German ace continues to flirt with the Giallorossi.
Podolski's days at Bayern Munich seem to be numbered after the arrival of USA international Landon Donovan and Croat Ivica Olic.
The 23-year-old has refused to commit his future to Die Roten and has hinted that he would welcome a move to Roma.
“I have heard that Roma are interested in me, but I have had no contact with the Giallorossi,” Podolski told Il Giornale.
“Francesco Totti is a great player and he showed incredible strength to come back for the 2006 World Cup after his injury.
“It really wouldn't be bad to play alongside Totti. An adventure in Italy would be nice and Luca Toni has always told me I would do well there and improve as a player.”
But Tuttosport claims that Juve are lining up a bid to snatch Podolski away from the Giallorossi.
The Old Lady would reportedly have no trouble meeting the required £8.5m fee and would like to bolster their attacking ranks.
