Podolski reveals Spurs link

Bayern Munich striker Lukas Podolski claims Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing him.
Podolski, 23, is currently away on international duty with Germany at Euro 2008, but claims that Spurs, alongside Italian side Juventus, have made their interest in him known.
The powerful forward rose to prominence during the 2006 World Cup where he was named the young player of the tournament.
He joined Bayern Munich in a £7million deal later that summer but has struggled to dislodge the likes of Luca Toni and Miroslav Klose from the starting spots at the Bundesliga club.
However, on the international stage he continues to be prolific after scoring three times in Germany's three matches at Euro 2008 so far.
"I have been informed about both clubs' interest," said Podolski. "That is very interesting for me."
"I really want to reach the semi-final. I will only start thinking about the future after that."
