Barcelona transfer news: How much will Robert Lewandowski cost Barcelona?

By


The Poland striker wants out 

Barcelona manager Xavi has confirmed that the club couldn’t afford to sign Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappé but are very much in the race to sign Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski this summer. Haaland is set to join Manchester City and Mbappe is now reportedly set on staying put at Paris Saint-Germain, but the Poland international has made it clear that he wants to leave the German champions in the coming months. 

Lewandowski has a contract at Bayern that is set to expire in 2023, which means the club will either have to sell the player this summer or risk losing him for free next summer. The Bavarian club’s hierarchy have repeatedly said that they have no intentions of selling Lewandowski this summer, however Bild have reported that Barca have made a €32 million offer for the striker and may get their man if they improve their offer to €40m.

Such is Barca’s apparent desire to sign Lewandowski this summer that Xavi was happy to openly admit that the club was doing all it could to sign the striker in the coming months. “It is a possibility that he could come, yes,” Xavi said at a press conference on Saturday. “He has said it publicly as well. There are negotiations, but it won’t be easy, he has a one-year contract with Bayern.”

When asked about the club’s failure to land Haaland or Mbappé this summer, the Spanish coach agreed with suggestions that Barca simply didn’t have the financial capacity to match bids for those players right now. “That’s right. The economic situation is what it is,” said Xavi. “We are not in the bidding of Haaland or Mbappe, but it is what we have inherited. We must not look back, but forward.”

€32m or €40m – will Bayern accept Barca’s offer for Lewandowski? 

Although Bayern are very clear that they don’t want to sell Lewandowski in their public remarks, reports in Germany do suggest otherwise. As reported in the aforementioned Bild article, the Munich side are ready to negotiate a fee for the want-away striker in the summer transfer window. Although the 33-year-old striker is currently valued at €50m, Bayern would reportedly accept around €40m for Lewandowski. Who will apparently be offered a sizable three-year deal at the Catalan giants, if a transfer can be conclude this summer.
