Lewandowski Sets 10-Goal Target To Push for Barcelona Extension as MLS Offer Persists
The 37-year-old prefers to remain in Barcelona despite competing proposals from abroad.
Overview
- Polish journalist Mateusz Borek reports Lewandowski believes hitting 10 goals before season’s end could convince Barcelona to renew his expiring contract.
- Lewandowski has 13 goals in 31 appearances this season, with a recent Levante outing showing reduced influence at 66 minutes played, 18 touches and two shots before being substituted.
- His current deal expires on June 30, placing him on course for free agency unless new terms are agreed.
- Chicago Fire have made a “very good” financial offer and Saudi clubs are interested, though the player is said to favor staying for family and business stability in Barcelona.
- Reports suggest any renewal may require a pay cut, while coach Hansi Flick has urged the striker to stay focused as other center-forward options are often preferred.
