FC Barcelona are still making intensive efforts to transfer world footballer Robert Lewandowski. Although those responsible at FC Bayern have already ruled out a change of superstar in the summer of 2022, the Spaniards hope to wrap up the coup after all.
If you believe the statements made by sports director Hasan Salihamidzic and ex-president Uli Hoeneß, Robert Lewandowski will also wear the FC Bayern jersey in the coming season. In the past few days, both have declared in front of running TV cameras that the record champions will not let the Poles go.
“I definitely rule out Lewandowski leaving the club in the summer,” said Salihamidzic on “Sky”. Hoeneß agreed in the “BR” interview and said: “I’m absolutely assuming that Robert Lewandowski will play at Bayern next year because he has a contract.”
At FC Barcelona they don’t see things so clearly. Barca bosses remain convinced they have a chance at Lewandowski. Despite the denials from Munich, the top Spanish club is not giving up in poker about the Pole, claims “transfer expert” Fabrizio Romano, among others.
FC Bayern threatens tough Lewandowski poker
The journalist writes that the superstar continues to be a priority at FC Barcelona. Those responsible for Barca are said to have worked out two different contract models: a three-year contract and a two-year contract with an option for another. However, it is still very early, so a timely decision cannot be expected.
The newspaper “Sport” meanwhile reports that Lewandowski’s advisor Pini Zahavi met both the Bayern manager and the Barca bosses to hold initial talks. It is not clear how these turned out. However, the newspaper also writes that there is still a long way to go before the final decision is made.
