On November 29, 2021, Bayern Munich's Polish forward Robert Lewandowski waved on stage after being awarded the Ballon d'Or France Football Award at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris. FRANCK FIFE AFP WARSAW Robert Lewandowski wants to leave Bayern Munich as he hasn't been respected by the people in charge for months, his agent Pini Zahavi told German newspaper Bild on Monday.
The Pole has decided to not extend his contract with Bayern until June 2023, because he is linked to Barcelona. He has already informed the German champions that he would like to join Barcelona.
FC Bayern has a history, according to Robert Lewandowski. Robert wants to leave FC Bayern after eight years in which he gave the club everything. In an interview with Bild published on Monday, Zahavi said that he has a chance to fulfill a lifetime dream and join the club he always dreamed of.
The agent stated that the Bayern's authorities should have shown more respect for the striker.
Robert wants to leave FC Bayern this summer, and that is a clear statement for the matter. Robert and me don't care about money. He hasn't felt respected by the people in charge for months, that's the truth. Bayern didn't lose the player Lewandowski, but the player Robert, Zahavi said.
According to Bayern, Lewandowski turned down their offer, but Zahavi claimed that it is not true.
There was no such offer. I will tell you an anecdote from the past year. I came to a meeting with Oliver Kahn, Hasan Salihamidzic and Marco Neppe. I told them: What do you think about a contract extension with Robert? The 78-year-old revealed that the answer was silence.
Lewandowski's future is uncertain as Barcelona and Bayern are still in talks.
