Barcelona offers 40 million euros for Lewandowski
Barcelona has raised the value of the offer made to Bayern Munich, the German football champion,
to give up its Polish international top scorer Robert Lewandowski to 40 million euros, according to
what was reported on Wednesday by German media.
Barcelona initially made an offer of 32 million euros and then raised it to 35 million before it now
reached 40 million, while Bayern Munich is demanding 60 million to give up the 34-year-old who
won the FIFA award for the best player in the world twice (2020 and 2021). According to “Bild”.
In light of the difficult financial situation that Barcelona is going through, the contract with
Lewandowski may be linked to other deals, including the departure of Dutch international midfielder
Frank De Jong to Manchester United in a deal valued at 65 million euros, which will give the Catalan
club the necessary funding to settle the contract with “Barcelona.” Leva”.
And earlier this month, Bayern Munich’s sporting director, Hasan Salihamidzic, reiterated his insistence
on sticking to Lewandowski until his contract expires next year.
“I have clearly explained our position on the status of his contract,” Salimadzic told Bild, referring to
a phone conversation he had with the 33-year-old Polish player on Tuesday.
Lewandowski had announced at the end of May that his “story” with the German club was “coming to an end”
during a press conference with the Polish national team, later justifying this situation by his desire to search
for “an extra passion in life”.
The Polish star has been defending the colors of the Bavarian club since 2014, scoring 344 goals, and
his current contract expires at the end of 2023, which means that staying with Bayern for an additional
season without renewing his contract will make him a free player next season and leave for free.
