Barcelona has reportedly decided on Robert Lewandowski amidst his struggles with goal-scoring this season.
Lewandowski’s tally of nine goals in 21 La Liga appearances this season falls significantly short of his performance last season, where he emerged as the league’s top scorer with 23 goals in 34 games.
His current form has not gone unnoticed, with even his national team manager, Michal Probierz, acknowledging the dip in his goal-scoring prowess. This has led to speculation about the Polish striker’s future with the club.
However, according to reports from SPORT (via Barca Universal), Barcelona remains committed to Lewandowski despite his recent struggles. They are willing to retain him and support him through this challenging period.
The decision now rests with the prolific striker, who must decide whether he wishes to continue with the club. With manager Xavi Hernandez set to depart Camp Nou at the end of the season, Lewandowski may opt to follow suit.
However, if Lewandowski sees the club’s vision beyond Xavi’s tenure and if Barcelona demonstrates their commitment to strengthening the team, he is likely to stay. The striker is reportedly content at the club, and his agent, Pini Zahavi, shares a positive relationship with the club’s hierarchy.
Barcelona views Lewandowski as a key asset in their ongoing project and is satisfied with his contributions since his arrival from Bayern Munich in 2022. They hope to see him regain his top form and remain with the club for the foreseeable future, especially considering his contract runs until 2026.
