According to Mirror, Klose desperately wanted a move to Arsenal in order to increase his chances of participating in the upcoming World Cup in Brazil, but Lazio rejected the offer.

These reports also claimed that Klose held talks with Mesut Ozil, Per Mertesacker and Lukas Podolski about Arsenal and London Life. Arsenal were even ready to offer 2 million GBP as a loan fee, but the move collapsed as Lazio were adamant in their stand.

Meanwhile Lazio got Gael Kakuta from Chelsea on a loan deal. Nice business from Lazio. Not so nice from the North London team.
