Coming one year from the end of his contract with Bayern Munich, Robert Lewandowski explained that he absolutely wanted to leave Bavaria to join FC Barcelona. The 33-year-old even came to imagine a certain revolt to force his transfer to Catalonia.
A strong decision for the one who scored 50 goals and delivered 7 offerings in 46 matches last season. On vacation near Ibiza, Robert Lewandowski would have crossed Xavi in a restaurant according to AS. The Polish striker would have taken the opportunity to discuss with the one he wants to become the player next season.

After having an innocuous discussion without addressing football, Robert Lewandowski waited until the last moment to broach the subject. Still just as motivated by the idea of leaving Bayern Munich, Robert Lewandowski would have slipped this to him when he left: “I really want to train with you.” Strong words for the native of Warsaw who intends to join FC Barcelona from July 16 and the American tour of the Catalan club.
For the moment the situation remains blocked since Bayern Munich is claiming 60 million euros in this file while FC Barcelona hopes to conclude at a price of around 50 million euros. While Bayern Munich will resume training on July 12, the situation is still undecided.
