Lewandowski at Barça, it’s heating up: the Pole ready to make huge sacrifices…

With Kylian Mbappé who could commit to Real Madrid, and while Haaland’s departure to Manchester City is already official, Robert Lewandowski is the other attraction in terms of future transfers. We know: the Polish striker, who still has a contract until June 2023 with Bayern Munich, would like to commit this summer with Barça.

But will the Catalan club, financially limited because of financial fair play, be able to pay the player’s salary? According to Mundo Deportivo, the player himself is ready to make sacrifices. Whoever receives 22 million euros gross per year at Bayern would be ready to reduce his salary by … 6 million. Still according to the Spanish media, which titles its front page on Lewandowski said “yes to Barca”the Pole has already had a discussion with coach Xavi and a three-year contract is said to be on the table.

This aspect visibly settled, there remains another major one: how much will Bayern be ready to let go of its goleador? Because, still according to Mundo Deportivo, Barça has set a limit of 35 million. But according to the Spanish media, the Catalan club could include Memphis Depay in the deal to make Munich officials give in. Sufficient ? To be continued…

Crossover with Dembélé?

Lewandowski is not the only one to be quoted on the departure to Bayern. Serge Gnabry could in particular go to see if the grass is not greener elsewhere and the Bavarian leaders expect a busy summer on the transfer market. Because they will have to compensate for departures but also ensure that the workforce is rejuvenated. All while composing with a limited envelope after the passage of the pandemic (which would have cost them 150 million euros according to some estimates).

This is how the name of Frenchman Ousmane Dembélé began to resonate in the corridors of Munich. At the end of the contract, the Barça winger has pleased Bayern for several years since he was already followed when he was still playing in Rennes. Rid of his many physical glitches for several months, the attacker of just 25 years old could be the subject of a four-year contract proposal on the basis of an annual salary of 18 million euros, according to our colleagues from The Team. PSG would also have an eye on this file.
