The transfer posse around Robert Lewandowski continues.

The Pole ignited the next level of escalation in an open dispute with FC Bayern.

Munich – Rarely has a transfer request been expressed as openly as in the case of Robert Lewandowski.

While the Bavarians definitely want to keep the Poles at Säbener Straße for a year - in accordance with his contract - RL9 has publicly expressed his desire to change.

Disgruntlement, a power "basta" and rumbling counter-reactions followed.

Lewandowski is now going on the next "charm offensive" - ​​in a negative sense.

Lewandowski ignites against FC Bayern: "Something died in me"

In the Polish podcast from

, Lewandowski openly rumbled against his situation at FC Bayern and once again expressed his desire to change in harsh words.

Money is not an issue, as he explains.

Rather, he has already achieved everything at Bayern.

In Spain (!) he could now "fulfill another dream - to play for a club that is even bigger than the German record champions," said Lewandowski.

That alone could be understood as a small side swipe in the executive floor of FC Bayern.

But that statement is likely to be forgotten given the words that follow the top striker.

"I'm going because I want to have more emotions in my life," said the Pole.

Then he goes straight to FCB: "They didn't want to listen to me until the end.

Something in me has died.

And it's impossible to jump over.

Even if they want to be professional, they can't make amends.”

Lewandowski recalls performance at FCB and says: "It doesn't make sense"

In the podcast, Lewandowski recalls his outstanding performance for FC Bayern - and injuries and pain, despite which he did his best.

"I think it will be best to find a good solution for both sides.

And not to look for a unilateral decision.

It makes no sense.

Not after this time,” the Pole continued.

He himself apparently does not believe that those responsible for Bayern will really stop him and makes a poisoned thought in the podcast: "Why?

What kind of player wants to come to FC Bayern knowing that something like this could happen to him?

Where's the loyalty and respect in that?”

But he also goes with a crying eye, the 33-year-old continues: "I leave my friends, I've spent many years with some of them, we saw each other every day, we spent time.

Those are real friendships."

That's why he now hopes that he can leave Munich on good terms and remember the time as something positive.
