He Barça He faces a sports dilemma with one of his great offensive references, Robert Lewandowski. At 36 years old and with a contract in force until June 2026, the Polish striker is located in the radar of several clubs in the Saudi League, which have initiated movements to tote their possible signing this summer. Although for now the player's environment ensures his intention to continue in the Blaugrana team under the orders of Hansi Flick, the economic and sports context could lead to an unexpected turn in this last month of the market.
There are several Saudi Arabia clubs that have already contacted the environment of Lewandowski To know his willingness to change the air despite the year of the contract that remains in the Barça.
