Will Robert Lewandowski stay with FC Bayern Munich?

Lothar Matthäus gets involved in the discussion about the end of the world footballer's contract and again sharply criticizes Hasan Salihamidžić.

Munich – The feud between ex-Bayern star Lothar Matthäus and Hasan Salihamidzic is entering the next round.

This time, the

Sky

expert attacked FC Bayern's sports director after he had made a statement about Robert Lewandowski's possible future - to the astonishment of the striker, by the way.

Matthäus now intervenes and speaks plain language about how he would deal with the goalscorer's imminent end of contract.

FC Bayern: Brazzo definitely wants to keep Lewandowski – striker hears about it for the first time

But first things first: Brazzo had spoken to

Sky

about a possible extension of Robert Lewandowski*.

The 33-year-old's contract expires next summer.

How things will continue for the world footballer after that is still uncertain.

But one thing is certain: If an extension with FC Bayern Munich does not come about, the goal machine could already leave the club in the coming transfer period.

But the sports director says: "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 at all."

  • Robert Lewandowski

  • FC Bayern Munich

  • midfielder

  • Born: August 21, 1988 (age 33), Warsaw in Poland

  • Market value: 50 million euros

  • Contract with FC Bayern until: June 30, 2023

In and of itself, a clear statement from FC Bayern, but Robert Lewandowski didn't notice any of these phrases at first.

It was only through a sports reporter that the Pole found out about the sports director's statement.

"I'm hearing that for the first time," says the striker, adding matter-of-factly: "I'm going to stay 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.

FC Bayern: Lothar Matthäus speaks plainly about Lewandowski's contract – "Would listen carefully"

For Matthew, this careless communication is a clear no-go.

In his

Sky

column, the 1990 world champion gives his two cents – and sharply criticizes Salihamidzic.

For him it is clear that Lewandowski must stay with the traditional club.

“For Bayern, on the other hand, they have to do everything they can to remain one of the top teams in Europe even after many years.

A man is particularly important for this.

And that's Robert Lewandowski," said the 60-year-old.

Bayern should do everything to ensure that the player can continue to hunt for goals for the club for many years to come.

"He fits perfectly with the style of play of this team and the values ​​of this club.

He scores 40, 50 or even more goals* year after year.

He's basically never hurt.

He cares for his body like no other.

He's getting better and better.

And if the world footballer reveals in front of the camera that he has not yet been told that you absolutely want to keep him, then I would prick up my ears," continues Matthäus.

He could not understand why there was no conversation between the sports director and the striker.

"Internal communication seems to be just as bad for Lewandowski as it is for Süle*.

I would have liked Hasan to make a much clearer and clearer statement towards Lewandowski," says Matthäus.

A statement from the club is now crucial.

"But that doesn't seem to be the case either," clarifies the former Bayern player.

The Sky expert and the head of sports have been at odds for some time.

FC Bayern: Haarland instead of Lewandowski?

Lothar Matthäus gives theory for open end of contract

Matthäus already has a theory as to why Bayern Munich is keeping a low profile.

This could possibly be related to Erling Haaland's commitment.

Nothing is ready for a decision here yet, but the club would have to decide between Haaland and Lewandowski – if negotiations with the Dortmund player came about.

“But you would have to be pretty sure of the promise before you let Lewandowski go.

And even then I wouldn't do it," says Matthäus.

The former Bayern star advises the club to do what Franz Beckenbauer did to him.

Lewandowski should be allowed to decide for himself how long his contract period should be.

The last word has not yet been spoken on the whole matter.

It remains to be seen who dares to take the next step.

Meanwhile, Lewandowski and his teammates are preparing for the next game against Leverkusen.

After a half-year break, public training took place for the first time on Shrove Tuesday.

In addition to the striker, Manuel Neuer and Thomas Müller are back on the pitch.

The offensive player had been suspended for several days due to corona disease.
