Barcelona are starting to get this season’s transfers on track, but Robert Lewandowski appears to be still somewhat stuck in the face of Bayern’s ruthlessness, which shows inflexibility in not accepting Barcelona’s offers. According to German newspaper Aske, the Bavarian club are ready to accept his departure with a firm proposal of €50m and hope the Blaugrana will end up making the move sooner rather than later. The Polish striker will join Bayern’s pre-season tomorrow, which is something he wanted to avoid, and he hopes things will accelerate from now on
Barcelona’s last offer is 40 million euros plus ten variables and Bayern didn’t even respond. They are already ready to negotiate but their position is clear and they will not let Lewandowski out for less than a fixed €50m. According to ‘Bild’, the player and his family are appalled by the way Bayern are handling his departure and hope his position will be softer from now on versus a record-setting footballer in Munich. The German newspaper confirms that the footballer and striker’s environment is convinced that behind the harshness of this position is the honorary president of Bayern, Uli Hoeness. Oliverkan and Salihamidzic are more involved in negotiating, but their arguments have no weight at the moment
Whatever the case, Lewandowski plans to land in Munich today to undergo a medical review in the next few hours and will start practicing tomorrow with his teammates. Barcelona remains resolute in its position because it knows that the offer of 40 million euros plus variables is fair given the player’s age and the fact that he has one year left on his contract. The Pole and his agent also believe that an agreement must be reached on these numbers and will press in the coming days. In the interest of all parties and to reach an amicable agreement as soon as possible
