“Are not crazy”
After his time at Bayern Munich, will Robert Lewandowski step out of the Bundesliga and join FC Barcelona again? Several reports from Poland over the past few days have assumed that the 33-year-old striker has reached an agreement with the top Spanish club and that a change is imminent. The question remains: when?

Update April 12, 8:45 p.m.: On Tuesday evening, Oliver Kahn, CEO of FC Bayern, ruled out selling Lewandowski next summer in the run-up to the Champions League game against FC Villarreal on “Amazon Prime”. “We’re not crazy and let a striker go in the summer who scores 30 to 40 goals for us every year,” said Kahn. “There’s a competition out there who brings the biggest nonsense story about Robert Lewandowski.” The world footballer will “definitely” play for Bayern in the coming season. “It is very important to mention that we have a contract that is valid for another season,” said Kahn, referring to contract talks that had already begun. The striker’s current working paper in Munich expires in the summer of 2023: “If there’s something to report, then we’ll do it too.”

The Polish public broadcaster “TVP“ had already reported on Sunday that Lewandowski had “agreed all contractual terms” with Barça. FC Bayern is already aware of the decision. Since the Pole is still tied in Munich until 2023, negotiations with another club would require the record champions’ approval at this point in time anyway. According to the report, they didn’t try too hard to talk about extensions with Lewandowski, which “disappointed” the player.
In the homeland of FC Bayern’s top striker, who had started his time in Germany with Borussia Dortmund, “Interior sports“With reference to his own information reported: Lewandowski had already negotiated his near future. A “three-year contract worth millions” is on the table. PSG, Manchester City and Liverpool are mentioned as other clubs with whom the six-time Bundesliga top scorer and nine-time champion (twice with BVB) spoke.
For me, that doesn’t make sense either from Barca’s point of view or from RL’s point of view. In addition, Bayern only gives up in the summer when you get an adequate replacement, which I don’t see far and wide. For me, that’s more of the right thing to do, to build up pressure for the next salary negotiations with Bavaria. …
To FC Barcelona? Lewandowski bound to FC Bayern until 2023
A Lewandowski change in the summer was of course not certain from the outset. Although the report from “Interia” assumed a three-year contract from 2022/23, Barcelona would have to get approval from FC Bayern for the transfer. Lewandowski could only change free of charge next year. However, Munich’s attitude is said to have relaxed, at least compared to the past few years, when Real Madrid is said to have tried several times to bring the star striker to Spain. However, the Madrilenians didn’t throw their hat back in the ring this time. A transfer to Barça is now given a higher chance.
“Sport1” reporter Kerry Hau reported on Monday afternoon that, contrary to reports from Poland, FC Bayern had not yet been informed of Lewandowski’s alleged decision. The player only wanted to make one after discussions with the people of Munich. A farewell to Lewandowski in the summer is basically possible, also to Barça, with whom advisor Zahavi speaks alongside other clubs.
