--Lukas Podolski--
Lukas Podolski (German pronunciation: [ˈluːkas poˈdɔlski]) (born as Łukasz Podolski on 4 June 1985 in Gliwice) is a German footballer who plays as a striker for Bayern Munich and is a member of the German national team.

Podolski was born to Krystyna Podolska, a former member of the Polish national handball team and Waldemar Podolski, former Polish football professional and the 1980 champion of Poland with Szombierki Bytom, in the Silesian industrial town of Gliwice (near Katowice), Poland. In 1987, when Łukasz Podolski was two years old, his family emigrated from Poland to West Germany and got the status as Aussiedler, but Podolski said in 2008 that he has Polish blood in him. Podolski grew up in Bergheim, North Rhine-Westphalia, and later in Pulheim, both near Cologne. He still has Polish citizenship, but he travels with a German passport.
