    Robert Lewandowski is expected to leave Bayern Munich this summer, according to rumors, after agreeing to a three-year contract with Barcelona.

    His current contract with the Bundesliga champions runs through 2023, but he has stated that he has no intention of extending it and instead wishes to leave. Lewandowski’s representatives have achieved a verbal agreement to move to the Nou Camp, according to sources in Germany.

    Playing in Spain is supposed to ‘appeal’ to the veteran, and Barcelona is said to have made him a top target in their search for a new elite frontman this summer.

    However, Bayern Munich stated that he is not for sale, so their pursuit will be difficult. They were adamant that Lewandowski would not leave the club at the end of the season. Despite this, the Blaugrana have warned the Ace’s camp that a deal may be reached provided they pay a cost of between £25 million and £35 million.

    Hasan Salihamidzic, Bayern Munich’s director of football, publicly declared today that Lewandowski will not accept a contract extension since he wants to go.

    ‘I had a conversation with Lewa.’ He told me throughout the call that he did not want to accept our contract extension offer and that he wanted to leave the club, “Salihamidzic explained.

    ‘He expressed an interest in doing something different.’ But we haven’t changed our minds. ‘Lewa’s contract is set to expire on June 30, 2023. It is true. That’s not something I deal with because our position has always been clear. In 374 games for Bayern Munich, Lewandowski has scored 343 goals. He has 49 goals in 45 appearances this season.

    Lewandowski has eight Bundesliga titles and won the Champions League this season after joining Bayern Munich from Borussia Dortmund in 2014. For the fifth year in a row, he’ll lead the division in scoring. Bayern’s CEO, Oliver Kahn, said last month on Amazon Prime that allowing Lewandowski to leave would be “dumb.”

    He remarked that it would be foolish to sell a guy who scores 30 to 40 goals per season. In the coming weeks, we will be discussing his future. He’ll be with us for another season because his contract runs until June 2023. ‘ Bayern has approached Sadio Mane’s camp, according to the Times, after identifying the Liverpool forward as a possible alternative for Lewandowski.
