Robert Lewandowski wants to leave FC Bayern prematurely, and the Pole has made no secret of this wish for weeks. On the one hand, former Bundesliga professional Tomasz Hajto can understand his compatriot. However, the ex-Schalke player is also critical of the behavior of the world footballer.
Robert Lewandowski continues to make headlines about FC Bayern. The 33-year-old wants to join FC Barcelona this summer. The people of Munich have so far blocked a transfer and, for their part, refer to the contract that is valid until 2023.
According to Tomasz Hajto, the change posse harms both Bayern and Lewandowski. “It should have been discussed internally. This action by Robert to rush forward – that would not have happened with Rummenigge and Hoeneß. They held everything together. Nothing was ever made public,” said the 49-year-old in an interview with “sports1“The theater now doesn’t need Robert, nor does Bayern need it.”
Hajto added: “I don’t think that’s a good thing. Of course he’s allowed to say, ‘I want to go!’ Two such big names – it was clear that there would be a public bang. Oliver Kahn said he had made an offer, but Robert said he hadn’t received one. He’s just deeply disappointed.”
Hajto: Lewandowski “had wanted to change a year ago”
The fact that Lewandowski himself spoke publicly about his thoughts on leaving the Polish national team was “the wrong time,” said Hajto.
The former FC Schalke 04 and 1. FC Nürnberg player has had frequent contact with Lewandowski in recent years. “Robert and I always met,” reveals Hajto: “He wanted to change a year ago. A player like him now has his last chance to feel something new in football.” That’s why he hopes “that Robert can go to Barca”.
