The next player from Germany’s 2014 World Cup team is retiring: Lukas Podolski is ending his professional career in the summer. The 40-year-old announced this on social media on Friday. “A chapter ends, a new era begins,” wrote Podolski, who has been under contract with Gornik Zabrze in Poland since 2021. On Saturday, after the home game against Radomiak Radom, it will be over for Podolski, who only took over as owner of his current club on Thursday.
