This is no longer really in doubt. Robert Lewandowski will leave Bayern this summer. He asked for his departure and will not extend his contract which ends in a year. The striker said it after the last day of the Bundesliga this Saturday, confirming the proposed tenus by Hasan Salihamidžić just with the draw of the Bavarians (2-2) in Wolfsburg. This is the end of a very beautiful story that started in 2014.
It will still be necessary to raise the sum required by Bayern Munich. This has already gone down since a few weeks ago, the German media mentioned between 50 and 60 M€ to allow the Pole to leave the German champion. Now things have changed a bit. the Rekordmeister flexing its positions to accept an offer of around €40m. But it can also bring competition into play.
Barça will not exceed 35 M€
Lewandowski is in high demand. From now on, Barça is no longer alone on this issue. There is of course the PSG to replace Mbappé, but also Chelsea who interferedwhile Romelu Lukaku’s situation with the Blues is not looking good, especially after the last statements of his agentright away challenged by the Belgian in person. Still, the English club, if the sale is successfulpotentially has more resources than his Catalan counterpart.
The 33-year-old striker makes Barça his priority and, according to Sports world would have even conceded to some financial sacrifices to join the Blaugranas. Always according to MD, the Culés have set a limit not to be exceeded in transfer compensation: €35 million. Beyond that, the operation would jeopardize the finances of the club, which do not really need that at the moment. But the objective is to sign him for 30 M€, even if it means including a player. The media talks about Memphis Depay, who pleases Bayern.
