Lewandowski expected to earn €12 million at Barcelona on a three-year deal

A report from SPORT sheds some light on the contract that Bayern Munich superstar Robert Lewandowski has agreed with Barcelona as he looks to make the jump to Camp Nou in the summer transfer window.

The 33-year-old is entering the final year of his contract with the Bavarian giants and has made it abundantly clear that he does not wish to continue at the Allianz Arena, despite the club’s insistence that they will not sell the ace goalscorer.

With rising tensions between the two parties, things could be headed for a bitter divorce. While Bayern continue to hold firm on their stance, Lewandowski has already held talks and agreed a contract with Barcelona.

The Poland international recently admitted that he did not even consider any other offers apart from the one Catalan giants tabled. It had previously been suggested that Lewandowski had agreed on a three-year deal worth €9 million per year.

However, according to the aforementioned report from SPORT, the figure reported earlier might not be the accurate one.

It is now being claimed that Lewandowski would be on a contract worth €24 million per season gross salary, which will boil down to net wages of €12 million-a-year.

The 33-year-old will be signing a two-year contract with an option of an additional year that will depend on the performances and the willingness of the two parties to extend the deal.

The report also gives an idea about the finances that Barça are willing to commit to sign Lewandowski in the summer, stating that president Joan Laporta will not offer more than €30 million to Bayern Munich for his services.

The Polish striker, whose current market value is €45 million, is entering the final year of his contract and will soon turn 34. So, the Blaugrana are unwilling to pay over the top and are prepared to go as far as €30 million.

However, Bayern are still not relenting on their stance and any move would depend on the Bavarians agreeing to sell Lewandowski and finding a replacement for him.
