Chelsea on Lewandowski, Bayern on Lukaku: the exchange rumor

A suggestion that could soon become something more. Robert Lewandowski is ready to leave Bayern Munich. His contract expires in 2023 and for the Bavarians to sell him in the summer is the only opportunity not to lose him on a free transfer and scrape together some money to find a suitable replacement. There is a bit of tension between the Pole and the leaders of the German club at the moment. The company, through the mouth of the sporting director Salihamidzic, made it known that the player would have refused the renewal offer and would have asked to leave, Lewandowski however denies that it really went like this. What is certain is that in the summer there could be a separation, with Barcelona and Chelsea at the window. The Blues, by the way, could offer an exchange with Romelu Lukaku. The former Inter Milan has not convinced this season (just 15 goals this season, 8 in the league), which is why there could be a goodbye.

The situation

–

Lewandowski actually would like to go to Barcelona. In Catalonia he is convinced he can win titles and compete for the Ballon d’Or. However, the blaugrana must put the 40 million requested by Bayern on the plate and to do so they will first have to sell. According to Bild, only if Barcelona does not find an agreement with Bayern would Lewandowski open up for the transfer to Chelsea. Tuchel values ​​him particularly and in London they are looking for a striker who can replace Lukaku in case of departure. Curiously, Chelsea had already knocked on Bayern’s doors a year ago, putting 80 million on the plate for Lewandowski and only after the refusal of the Bavarians had they tacked the Belgian forward. Not only that: Bayern have been following Lukaku for some time but have never sank the blow precisely because in that role he was covered by Lewandowski. An exchange could favor both clubs, but for now it is only a suggestion. For Lewa at the moment Barcelona has priority.
