Barcelona: five offers on the table for Robert Lewandowski

Barcelona’s striking stalwart Robert Lewandowski is weighing up no fewer than five formal offers as the 37-year-old approaches the final months of his current deal, which expires on 30 June. The Pole, who has led the Blaugrana attack since his arrival, is in no rush to commit and is expected to delay any announcement until after the club’s presidential elections in April.

Barça have tabled their own proposal in an attempt to retain the prolific forward, yet competition is intensifying. Chicago Fire are pressing hard to lure Lewandowski to Major League Soccer, while Serie A giants Milan, La Liga rivals Atlético de Madrid, Turkish heavyweights Fenerbahçe and a cluster of Saudi Arabian clubs are all monitoring developments.

Sources close to the player indicate that the final verdict will hinge on family stability rather than the size of the pay packet, ensuring that the next destination offers both sporting ambition and a secure environment off the pitch.
