Barcelona's Lewandowski Future Uncertain: Agent's Statement Amid Exit Speculations
The future of Robert Lewandowski at FC Barcelona is shrouded in uncertainty. His contract with the club expires in June 2026, and recent reports suggest the Blaugrana have decided not to extend it due to physical decline (https://barcauniversal.com/decision-made-barcelona-will-not-renew-veterans-contract-due-to-physical-decline/).
At 37, Lewandowski shares the starting striker role with Ferran Torres this season. The Poland captain has started in four of Barcelona's ten matches, while the Spaniard has started in six. Manager Hansi Flick values Lewandowski's experience but prioritizes greater mobility, pace, and explosiveness in attack, leading to his diminished role this term.
Pini Zahavi, Lewandowski's agent, has addressed the striker's future at Barcelona beyond the current season. He avoided specific details about long-term plans but emphasized the absence of recent proposals from Saudi Arabia.
In an interview with 365scores (via Mundo Deportivo, https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20251013/1002549821/agente-lewandowski-admite-futuro-incierto.html), Zahavi stated, 'Lewandowski's contract with Barcelona expires in the summer of 2026, and no decisions have been made regarding it. We must wait and see what unfolds in the coming days.'
Regarding Saudi Arabia interest, Zahavi added, 'There are no official negotiations or offers from Saudi clubs at present.'
With no official communication between Lewandowski and Barcelona regarding his future, both parties remain focused on the season. However, the possibility of an exit as a free agent looms large (https://barcauniversal.com/barcelona-veteran-superstar-has-concrete-chances-of-leaving-in-the-summer-romano/).
