– First of all, I have to answer the question of what I want to do. At this point I don’t know the answer yet. I’m not in a hurry, I’m calm. Even if the club came to me now and made an offer, I wouldn’t answer. I have to feel and make the best decision for me – said Robert Lewandowski in November. This is how he reacted to a question about his future at FC Barcelona during a press conference before the matches against Lithuania and the Netherlands. Has anything changed in this respect since then?
The whole world is talking about Lewandowski’s contract. Here are the scenarios
Lewandowski’s contract with FC Barcelona is valid until June 30, 2026. If both parties do not agree on its extension, after that date the Polish striker will become a free agent and will be able to leave for free to any club. The authorities of the Catalan team have still not made a decision on this matter, but the Spanish media are increasingly suggesting that the contract will not be extended.
In this situation, leaving LaLiga seems to be an increasingly realistic scenario. The media have been talking for a long time about Lewandowski moving to one of the clubs from Saudi Arabia, Chicago Fire or AC Milan. And what does this issue look like from the perspective of the player himself?
Lewandowski was asked about his future. “No need yet…”
Journalist Bogdan Rymanowski tried to find out. On Friday, his interview with Robert Lewandowski premiered on the RymanowskiLive YouTube channel. – I still have some time to make a decision. As of today, I don’t know where I would like to play. There’s no need to think about it yet. I don’t know which direction I would like to go, but I have no pressure – replied the 37-year-old.
However, Lewandowski is not considering retiring from sports. He himself admitted that this would happen in 2-3 years. He also referred to the idea of reducing his salary at FC Barcelona. – There is no such topic. It also depends on what the club’s plan is. Whatever I want. Now I can’t say 100% how [FC Barcelona] If he comes forward, I’ll say yes. Of course, I have great respect for FC Barcelona, I know what kind of club it is, I have tried to help many times, and that was my role, coming to FC Barcelona to introduce these standards of this mentality, hard work, and I did it at the beginning. Now I’m just happy with every match, the fact that I play for FC Barcelona at this level, that we win, he concluded.
