Robert Lewandowski will probably leave Bayern Munich.

Who could replace him?

If all else fails, there is an internal emergency solution.

Munich – Robert Lewandowski will leave Bayern Munich.

This is the current status of the most discussed personal details of the record champion.

The question is: When will the super striker change?

Lewandowski's contract is valid until June 30, 2023, so there are currently two options: either Bayern sell the Poles this summer or he leaves the club a year later on a free transfer.

An extension seems completely out of the question at the moment, advisor Pini Zahavi recently said: "For Robert Lewandowski, FC Bayern is history."

Height: 1.85 m

Club: Bayern Munich

Contract until: 2023

Robert Lewandowski: Farewell to Bayern Munich seems inevitable

The question remains: How do Munich replace their goal guarantee?

Many suitable centre-forward alternatives are currently being discussed, and the bosses probably see the greatest opportunities in Stuttgart's Sasa Kalajdzic.

The tall Austrian is said to be available for 20 million euros, Kalajdzic has proven his skills several times in the past VfB years.

Compared to Leverkusen's Patrik Schick or Benfica Lisbon's Darwin Nunez, he would also be the considerably cheaper alternative as the successor to Robert Lewandowski.

There is a lot to be said for Kalajdzic at the moment, Bayern apparently even want to sign a second striker to intercept a possible Lewandowski departure.

According to

tz

information, Nagelsmann would like another dribbler for the wing positions.

Successor to Robert Lewandowski: FC Bayern would still have an internal emergency solution

And if everything goes completely wrong and the record champions (all FC Bayern titles in the overview) end up without Lewandowski and a suitable replacement?

It is extremely unlikely that it will come to that - but: Even then, Bayern would still have storm options that have not yet been discussed.

With Thomas Müller and Serge Gnabry, Munich have two players in the squad who have already played the classic position of center forward.

Gnabry is said to have been dissatisfied with his role at FCB recently, he wanted a more central role.

As a centre-forward he would get these.

Bayern patron Hoeneß speaks plain language – "Do you still have them all?"

Thomas Müller or Serge Gnabry as the new center forward at Bayern Munich?

According to

transfermarkt.de

, Gnabry has played eight games as a nominal center forward in his club career - of course that's almost nothing.

He scored seven goals and two assists at Arsenal, Werder Bremen, 1899 Hoffenheim and Bayern.

In the German national team, on the other hand, the native of Stuttgart was used more often in the center of the attack: Gnabry has made 18 center forward appearances in a wide variety of competitions with the DFB since 2018.

The record: nine goals and four assists.

According to transfermarkt.de

, Müller has made

46 appearances as a Bayern center forward.

20 goals and 14 assists jumped out.

In 2014 in particular, the "Raumdeuter" was number nine - interpreted in its own way, of course.

Müller scored four of his five World Cup goals as a nominal center forward for the German national team.

Müller played a total of 15 times in the German strike center, resulting in eight goals and two assists.

Lewandowski successor at FC Bayern Munich: Internal solution as an absolute emergency plan

In a classic 4-2-3-1, which Munich has recently played more often, the offensive wingers could consist of Kingsley Coman and Leroy Sané.

Müller or Gnabry could move into the center of the storm.

Jamal Musiala, whom Nagelsmann would like to give more playing time, would be an alternative starting eleven on the ten.

With Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and loan returnee Joshua Zirkzee, Bayern would then have other offensive options on the bench.

Of course, that's not Plan A of those responsible for Bayern and probably not Plan B, C or D either, as CEO Oliver Kahn recently described the current situation.

It's more of a Plan Z. But if Lewandowski goes and the Reds actually collect one transfer basket after the other, they would at least have an emergency solution from their own ranks.

If Gnabry doesn't want to change too.
