Robert Lewandowski’s agent has confirmed what was already widely expected—his immediate future remains with Barcelona.
At 36 years old, Lewandowski continues to defy age, proving that time has not diminished his ability to find the back of the net. His current form is nothing short of remarkable, surprising even Barça fans with his consistency.
Despite ongoing speculation about a potential move to Saudi Arabia, he remains a crucial figure in the team’s attack. His statistics this season highlight his importance, with 34 goals and three assists in 38 matches, making him one of the most complete forwards in the world.
These performances have solidified his role under manager Hansi Flick while also sparking discussions at the club’s highest levels. Even as his contract nears its final years, his contribution remains invaluable.
Lewandowski’s Contract and Transfer Speculation
Lewandowski’s contract with Barcelona runs until 2026, making him the club’s highest-paid player with earnings exceeding €30 million per season. Despite his excellent form, speculation about his future has intensified.
The Saudi Pro League, which has already attracted several top players, has been linked as a possible destination. Given the league’s financial power, rumors surrounding a lucrative offer for Lewandowski have grown stronger.
However, club president Joan Laporta recently reassured fans that Barcelona intends to extend the Polish striker’s contract until 2027. Now, his agent, Pini Zahavi, has firmly dismissed any uncertainty. Zahavi confirmed, “Robert Lewandowski is happy in Barcelona and will remain with the team next season, 100 percent.
We have a contract with the club, and we will honor it until the end.” With this statement, he has made it clear that Lewandowski will stay at Barça for at least another season, eliminating any immediate concerns about a transfer.
Barcelona’s Striker Search and Internal Competition
Despite Lewandowski’s commitment to Barcelona, the club is actively seeking another top-class striker to compete with him. This move is not a sign that Barça wants to replace him but rather an attempt to strengthen the squad and ensure greater competition in the forward line.
Next season, Lewandowski will continue to lead the team’s attack, but he will no longer be the only focal point. Barcelona is reportedly considering several candidates, including Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyökeres, and Jonathan David, to provide depth and competition.
It remains to be seen how Lewandowski will handle the challenge, but one thing is certain—he will remain a key figure in Barcelona’s attack, sharing the spotlight with a new striking partner.
