After Bayern's victory in Frankfurt, Hasan Salihamidzic made a clear statement about Robert Lewandowski's personnel.

However, a sentence by the striker revealed gaps in communication.

Munich – Robert Lewandowski caused surprise on Saturday evening in Bayern's 1-0 win at Eintracht Frankfurt.

But that wasn't because the Pole, for once, didn't score his own goal.

After the final whistle, the 33-year-old answered questions at the Sky microphone for several minutes and spoke about the Ukraine conflict and his possible whereabouts in Munich.

On the latter topic, the attacker slipped out a significant sentence.

FC Bayern: Will Lewandowski leave Munich before the end of his contract?

Lewandowski's situation at Bayern * can be sketched quite easily.

The top striker's contract runs until the summer of next year, which is why a reasonable transfer fee could be generated in the event of a change in the coming transfer period.

If both sides do not agree on an extension of Lewandowski's* contract, a departure in a few months would probably result.

The Munich team want to prevent a free transfer of the superstar with all their might.

Sports director Hasan Salihamidzic* recently gave this to understand when he formulated his hope for the whereabouts of the personified goal machine.

“Lewandowski is a very, very important part of our team.

He has already scored 28 goals this season and is on his way to hopefully propelling our team to titles again.

That's why it's out of the question, ”said 'Brazzo' to Sky when it came to a potential change.

FC Bayern Munich: Robert Lewandowski hears "for the first time" about Brazzo's extension plans

In an interview with Sky moderator Patrick Wasserziehr, Lewandowski was amazed at what his boss said.

"I'm hearing that for the first time," said the striker before classifying the situation in his calm manner.

"I'm staying calm.

It's important for me to be able to focus on my game.

I'm open to everything, but for me the only important thing is what happens in the game over the next week.

Everything about the contract is topic number two for me, that moves into the background”, the Pole moderated the question relatively confidently.

Especially the short remark by Lewandowski, who apparently noticed for the first time that Salihamidzic is publicly campaigning for continued employment, gives food for thought.

In any case, this does not sound like open communication between the offensive man and those responsible at FC Bayern*.

The poker around Lewandowski is also far from decided, the relationship between Salihamidzic and the Pole's advisor, Pini Zahavi, is also burdened due to the failed Alaba negotiations.

The management team of the record champions may have to do a lot of convincing again.

According to information from

, there have not yet been any discussions with the player side, so an appointment is still pending.
