This is what “Lewy” negotiations looked like. Sensational news straight from Barcelona
Robert Lewandowski leaves FC Barcelona at the end of the 2025/26 season. There is new information about the negotiations that the Pole conducted with the Spanish champions.
Saturday, May 16, 2026, turned out to be a breakthrough in the saga about the club future of the captain of the Polish national football team. RL9 has decided to leave FC Barcelona.
– After four years full of challenges and hard work, it’s time to move on. I leave with the feeling that the mission has been accomplished. Four seasons, three championships. I will never forget the love the fans gave me from the very first days. Catalonia is my place on earth. Thank you to everyone I met along the way during these wonderful four years. Special thanks go to President Laporta for giving me the opportunity to experience an amazing chapter of my career. Barca is back where it belongs. Long live Barca. Long live Catalonia – said Robert Lewandowski in a moving post on social media, and we reported in WPROST.
Importantly, the phrase – that it was the Pole who decided – is absolutely accurate here. It was not Barca who gave up Lewandowski’s services. The experienced striker realized that it was high time to try one last challenge in his rich career.
This is how Robert Lewandowski left Barcelona. Here’s the latest news!
Pini Zahavi, the man responsible for the Pole’s interests, shed new light on the story of the farewell. The famous football agent appeared in Catalonia some time ago and listened to what the Spanish champions’ side had to offer.
As it turned out, it had nothing to do with the Polish striker’s ambitions. A man who went down in Barca’s history by arriving at the club in 2022 as its biggest star. And together with his colleagues, he took the Pride of Catalonia to the top.
– Robert Lewandowski did not reject the offer to extend his contract with FC Barcelona, but he wanted to take up a new challenge. Clubs from the USA and Saudi Arabia are showing interest, and the final decision will be made at the end of the season, Zahavi said, and his words are quoted, among others, on social media.
One thing is certain. Regardless of what direction Lewandowski ultimately chooses, Sunday’s (i.e. May 17) match will be the Pole’s symbolic farewell to Barca fans on Spotify Camp Nou. In the last round (i.e. May 23), the Spanish champions will go away to compete with Valencia.
FC Barcelona – Real Betis match from 21:15. The match will be broadcast on Eleven Sports 1.
