On March 16th, SportBild explained Manchester United have ‘expressed their interest in principle’ in Robert Lewandowski to the Bayern Munich star’s agent.
The striker’s current deal expires in 2023 and it is not clear whether he will sign a new deal, change clubs after this season or leave as a free agent at the end of next season.
According to Sky Deutschland, the 33-year-old has not made a decision to leave in the summer and instead, from his environment, they state that ‘everything is still open’.
The Poland international had publicly stated he was not approached by the Bundesliga club’s leaders over a new deal and since then, he has been ‘silent on this subject’.
Behind the scenes, the frontman ‘wants clarity’ and is not pleased with Bayern’s decision to look at the possibility of signing Borussia Dortmund star Erling Haaland.
Pini Zahavi, the ex-BVB man’s agent, doesn’t share a good relationship with the German club. The representative is well connected with clubs across Europe and it should be an easy task for him to get a ‘juicy contract’ for his client.
The Red Devils are an option as Sky state Manchester United have ‘already registered their interest’ in Lewandowski with Zahavi, backing up the SportBild claims.
With a gross salary of €25m, the Pole is currently the top earner at the Allianz Arena.
Sky’s report backs up claims by SportBild that United have already notified their interest in Lewandowski to Zahavi. With the player wanting more clarity on his future, it needs to be seen how this case develops in the coming weeks and months.
