Lewandowski wants to come to Barcelona, details of contract offer revealed – report

In a fresh report providing an update on Barcelona’s hunt for a new striker, SPORT reports that Bayern Munich superstar Robert Lewandowski will consider joining the Catalan heavyweights in the summer.

It is no secret that the Blaugrana have been on the lookout for a marquee striker to lead their project under Xavi Hernandez. Erling Haaland was the top target for the club, but the finances involved in the deal and the competition for his signing, have made the deal impossible.

Barcelona, as a result, are already looking at possible alternatives, with Robert Lewandowski emerging as one. The veteran striker is widely regarded as one of the most prolific goalscorers in the game, thanks to his exploits with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich.

The 33-year-old, though, is entering the final year of his deal with the Bavarian giants and is considering making one final move in his career. And, Barça have emerged as a potential destination for the hitman, who is ready to take the next big step in his career.

As per the report, Lewandowski believes that signing a club like Barcelona would help him gain even more reputation and recognition outside of Germany while also helping him win the Ballon d’Or.

While he has always held a desire to join a club of the stature of Barça or Real Madrid, circumstances in the past did not allow it. But with him entering the final year of his contract, there is a window of opportunity for the Blaugrana to swoop.

It is further stated that Lewandowski’s agent, Pini Zahavi, has a good relationship with Barça president Joan Laporta which could boost the club’s chances of landing him.

Barcelona make four-year contract offer

Barcelona, for their part, have already made their first move in an attempt to sign Lewandowski, as per a different report from SPORT.

According to the update, the Catalan heavyweights have offered the Poland international a four-year contract that would run until 2026 despite the striker being set to turn 34 years old in August later this year.

In addition to that, the club would make the Bayern Munich superstar the centre of his project under Xavi Hernandez despite the recent exploits of another former Borussia Dortmund striker in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Barça believe that signing Lewandowski will be financially much more feasible than Haaland due to his contractual situation at the Allianz Arena, along with his own desire to test himself at a new club.

If Barcelona are successful in their pursuit of the 33-year-old, it will nothing short of a huge coup.
