Robert Lewandowski Responds To Barcelona Exit Rumors

Robert Lewandowski recently addressed the rumours about his potential exit from Barcelona at the end of the season, with his contract expiring with the La Liga team. While on international duty, the Polish national was asked about his thoughts on leaving the club. He shared that he has yet to decide whether to stay or leave the club.

He shared, “In truth, the matter isn’t about the club’s move. The most important thing is that I myself find an answer to the question: What do I want to do? And so far, I haven’t arrived at a clear answer for myself yet. I’m not in a hurry; I feel an inner calm, and that’s the most important thing. Even if we assume the club comes now, I won’t respond. Because it also depends on my sense of what is best and most appropriate for me.”

Since joining Barcelona in 2022, the Polish striker has scored 108 goals for the Catalan club in his 159 appearances. The 37-year-old marked his return to the starting line-up with a hat-trick against Celta Vigo in a 4-2 win.
