After winning every major trophy with Bayern Munich, Polish star striker Robert Lewandowski seems to be ready for a new challenge. According to multiple reports, Lewandowski is looking to leave Bayern Munich in order to play for another big European club.
Bayern is aware of Lewandowski’s wishes but are not willing to let him go for cheap. The Bundesliga giants are looking for around $130 million for his services and wouldn’t settle for anything less.
Lewandowski, who is under contract until the summer of 2023, is reportedly increasingly frustrated by Bayern’s reluctance to accommodate him. However, it is unlikely that he will try to force a move and is ready to wait until the club has a change of heart.
Manchester City are considered the favorites to land Lewandowski if he is available. The Premier League side are in need of a striker and already monitor the 33-year-old star’s situation in case they can’t close a deal with Tottenham for Harry Kane.
Robert Lewandowski has been a scoring machine since joining Bayern Munich in 2014, netting 297 goals in 331 games in all competitions. He scored 41 goals in the past Bundesliga season alone, breaking the league record previously held by late legendary German striker Gerd Müller.
Lewandowski won 18 trophies during his time with Bayern, including seven straight Bundesliga titles and one UEFA Champions League. He was also the recipient of The Best FIFA Men’s Player award for 2020.
