Robert Lewandowski accepted by Barcelona players (Barcelona's official Twitter account)
Lots of smiles were seen tonight (Sunday to Monday) among Barcelona players as Robert Lewandowski walked into the dining room of the complex where the team is holding pre-season training, met his new friends for the first time and handed out handshakes and hugs to each of them.
The Blaugrana striker, who brings with him great hopes of returning to fight for titles, has joined Barça's preparations for the upcoming season and one of the questions that remains open is what number will appear on the back of his shirt.
"Sport" wrote today that the club is interested in the Pole receiving the number associated with him, 9 of course, but that it is occupied by Memphis Depai whose future in Barcelona is unclear.
Naturally, the marketing department wants the big names on the roster to wear the shirts with the most requested numbers among the fans, so it is possible that pressure will be put on Depai to give up the shirt in favor of the Pole, if he does not do so of his own free will.
An appropriate solution to the issue would be if Memphis leaves for another team, especially in light of the fact that his place in the offensive hierarchy has dropped significantly following the arrival of Lewandowski and Rafinha.
The striker who arrived from Bayern Munich provided first quotes to the official Barcelona website and said: "I am one who wants to play and win, and with Xavi it is possible. I am happy to be here, the last days were long and now I will concentrate on a new chapter in my life, a new challenge. Not only to win games - but also to win titles. "
Lewandowski continued: "I hope we will win from the start of the season to pave the way for the titles. I talked to Xavi and knew from the beginning that his ideas are good, so it was easy for me to decide to come to Barça. Xavi knows how to coach Barça and he was a great player at the club. "He has an amazing future as a coach and I want to be a part of it. We have a lot of good players and great quality, you can achieve a lot of achievements this season."

An amusing moment occurred in Barça's locker room after Osman Dembele renewed his contract, so at least a writer in "Mundo Deportivo".
The Frenchman gave a speech in the locker room following the announcement of his signature, and asked for the captain’s armband, before bursting out laughing and letting his teammates understand that he was joking.
