Lewandowski’s Exit Looms: Barcelona Open to Summer Sale as Contract Nears End
Barcelona is reportedly considering the possibility of offloading Robert Lewandowski in the upcoming summer transfer window, according to insights from Jose Alvarez of El Chiringuito. As the veteran striker approaches the final year of his contract next June and edges toward his 36th birthday, the club is contemplating a strategic move to capitalize on his market value.
Signed for €45 million from Bayern Munich last year, Lewandowski has faced challenges in maintaining consistent performance throughout the current season. Despite tallying eight goals and four assists in 17 games, the striker’s output falls short of his previous season’s numbers. With the impending arrival of Vitor Roque in January, Barcelona is weighing the option of making Lewandowski available for transfer in the summer.
While the Polish striker undeniably remains a formidable goal threat on his best days, the emergence of potential suitors from Saudi clubs adds an intriguing dimension to his future. As Lewandowski grapples with a season of ups and downs, the looming question arises: will this mark the conclusion of his tenure as a Barcelona player, or will Xavi continue to place his trust in the seasoned striker?
