Lukas Podolski stated that he is unhappy in the team and intends to leave in January.
One of the main strikers of the German national team criticized the club leaders and admitted that he does not see prospects of satisfying his ambitions with a team that has only managed to win one game in seven matches.
"We are not moving forward," said 25-year-old Podolski to "Bild." "If it continues like this, I will have to consider my future elsewhere."
He added: "Hannover" and "Mainz" are excellent examples of how one can successfully compete without large financial resources."
Interestingly, the general director of "Koln," Michael Maier, acknowledged Podolski's criticism: "Lukas said this after a painful defeat, but everyone in the club holds the same position.
"We did not talk about it, but we told the team to forget about the beginning of the season and start fresh."
