There are increasing signs that Robert Lewandowski could leave Bayern at the end of the season. According to current media reports, the top scorer complains about “a lack of appreciation on the part of the club’s management.” An extension with the German record champions is a long way off.
The rumor mill surrounding Robert Lewandowski is currently simmering. The sporting future of Poland is the all-determining topic in Munich and is becoming more and more important after the disappointing end of the CL. Even though club boss Oliver Kahn ruled out selling the striker in the summer this week, it seems to be forcing a farewell to the Isar.
Lewandowski is disappointed with Bayern club management
As reported by “RMC Sport” from France, the 33-year-old now makes no secret of the fact that he wants to leave FC Bayern this summer. Reason: Lewandowski complains about a lack of appreciation in Munich. Accordingly, the Polish striker is disappointed by the club management on Säbener Straße. This is mainly due to the hesitant behavior of the Munich team in terms of contract extensions. The club and the player have not yet had any concrete talks, which should annoy the striker noticeably.
According to “RMC Sport”, Lewandowski has not yet expressed his intention to leave FCB internally and is still waiting for a sign or concrete offer from Bayern. According to “Sport BILD” information, the record champions tend to only offer the top scorer a new contract until 2024. However, it is unclear what the people of Munich are financially willing to pay. The player site is rumored to be asking for a new annual salary of €30m. The attacker is currently said to be earning 23-25 million euros per season.
Barcelona are in wait
After Niklas Süle, the next Bayern star could leave the club in the summer. In the past, the DFB international and his advisors have repeatedly complained about the lack of appreciation in Munich. Süle is moving to league rivals Borussia Dortmund on a free transfer.
With Lewandowski, FC Barcelona could be the laughing third party. The Catalans are vying intensely for the FIFA World Player and would like to try again in the summer if there is no extension at FCB. His agent Pini Zahavi has been in contact with Barcelona for some time and is already laying out the financial framework for a move.
But it is also clear: without a transfer release from Bayern, there will be no transfer. According to reports, the Bayern bosses are quite willing to take the risk of losing Lewandowski on a free transfer in the summer of 2023.
