As explained by MARCA, Barcelona have already offered him a one-season contract extension, albeit in a low financial position, while the Polish striker continues to attract interest from various clubs, which would give him the option of continuing to compete at the highest level away from the Catalan club.<span class=\"xai-icon\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Discussions about his future have been a hot topic in his country, with many believing it would be best for him to move to a team where he is guaranteed a leading role in the coming years and where he can prove he maintains his competitive level. Although Lewandowski feels comfortable at club and city, the external situation continues to create pressure.<span class=\"xai-icon\"\/><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"ue-c-article__blockquote\">\n<p>I am confident that Robert will receive the treatment he deserves, whether he plays in MLS or another team in Europe.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>One of the most outspoken voices was that of former Poland international Jan Tomaszewski, who did not hesitate to advise him to leave if he wanted to finish his career fully satisfied. &#8220;We complained about this three or four months ago. Robert, act like a man. You are not alone. You are the most famous Pole in history and you allow yourself to be treated like this in Barcelona?&#8221; he told Superexpress.<span class=\"xai-icon\"\/>Tomaszewski was even more candid about what the striker should do, concluding: &#8220;If Roberto leaves now, let Barcelona do what they want and win the Spanish league title. I&#8217;m sure Roberto will get the treatment he deserves, whether he plays in MLS or another team in Europe.&#8221;<span class=\"xai-icon\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The Bavarian club maintains its position. Although they have fulfilled their obligation to provide him with continuity, they have made it clear that his role will be reduced and that he will not be guaranteed a starting place at centre-forward. In fact, manager Hansi Flick has already chosen to keep a low profile in key moments throughout this season.<span class=\"xai-icon\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marca.com\/en\/football\/barcelona\/2026\/04\/21\/69e750f222601d204e8b45e3.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TThe outlook for Robert Lewandowski&#8217;s future will soon become clear.
