Mercato Mercato – Robert Lewandowski confirms his desire to leave: “My story with Bayern Munich has come to an end”

If it’s not goodbye, it looks like it. Present at a press conference this Monday with the Polish selection, Roberto Lewandowski has officially confirmed what everyone has known for several weeks: he wants to leave Bayern Munich this summer.. “One thing is certain today: my story with Bayern has come to an end.“, he confided in front of the journalists.

A few hours later, Oliver Kahn, the president of the German champion, replied to him. “I can’t tell you why Robert chose this way of communicating about his situation. Public statements like this get you nowhere. He should know what he has at Bayern. Appreciation is not a one-way street“, dropped the emblematic former doorman of the Bavarian club to Sport1.

Barça, option number 1?

Under contract until 2023 with Bayern, “Lewy” therefore wishes to leave as soon as the next transfer window, and without waiting for the end of his lease. “I am 100% sure that Robert Lewandowski will play for Bayern next season. Why ? Because he has a contract. It’s that simple“, however, warned Uli Hoeness, honorary president of Bayern, during an interview with German radio BR24 Sport in early May. In the entourage of the striker, the position is however recorded and firm.

“None of us think about money. The truth is that he has not been respected by management for several months. Bayern lost the player but also the man. The club said he still had a year on his contract? Of course, Robert can stay another year, but that’s something I don’t advise them.“, warned his agent Pini Zahavi, who would continue to negotiate a possible arrival at Barça. The Catalan club would have already sent an offer of around 30 million euros to Bayern, which would be slow to send a response.
