Galatasaray forward Lukas Podolski was reportedly spotted kicking a photographer after leaving a restaurant in Istanbul last week.

The former Arsenal player, who joined the Turkish club in the summer, is said to have taken his wife Monika and son Louis to an eatery last Friday night.

According to 101greatgoals.com, paparazzi tried to get a snap of Podolski and his family while they were leaving the restaurant, which caused the footballer to kick out at one photographer.

The incident occurred just a few hours after Podolski scored in Galatasaray's 3-0 win over Bursaspor.
