Lukas Podolski has insisted that he has set his sights on winning the European Championship this summer with Germany.
The Arsenal-bound striker claims he will not be settling for a place in the final and believes that they can win the title for the fourth time.
Joachim Low's side are in a tough-looking Group B and open their Euro 2012 campaign against Portugal, before facing World Cup runners-up Holland and Denmark.
Poland-born Podolski was clear in his aims when asked about Germany's chances at this summer's competition, saying: "The title. Nothing else.
"In the last few years it has always been said that when we manage to reach the semi-finals, that is already some success.
"I think before the tournament starts we can say we are ready to play for the title.
"That brings a certain thrust, a force, if you say from the outset: we want to win the title."
Podolski will officially join Arsenal when the transfer window opens on July 1.
