"Loss" for Nagelsmann: Lewandowski rumors about the last Bayern game

Shortly before the last Bundesliga matchday of the season, the farewell rumors about Robert Lewandowski become more concrete. Bayern sports director Hasan Salihamidzic confirms: The Pole wants to leave. After the draw at VfL Wolfsburg, he confirmed this himself. However, little has been clarified.

Robert Lewandowski stood alone in Wolfsburg in front of the Bayern fans and let himself be celebrated with the goalscorer cannon. In front of the Sky camera, the world footballer then publicly asked FC Bayern to think about his summer transfer. "Sure, I still have a year of contract," said the 33-year-old. But he said to sports director Hasan Salihamidzic, "If an offer comes, then we have to think about it - also for the club. Both sides have to think about the future. That's all I can say," said the old and new top scorer in football -Bundesliga. "We'll have to wait and see what happens."

So it could have been the last appearance of the top attacker in the Munich jersey, he confirms: "It's quite possible that it was my last game for Bayern. I can't say one hundred percent, but it could be," he said at Viaplay.

In the 2-2 (2-1) win at VfL Wolfsburg on Saturday, he scored his 35th goal of the season and got the fifth top scorer in a row. Coach Julian Nagelsmann described the goal scorer's possible change after the game as a "loss". The coach referred to the offensive man's current contract until 2023. "There is little room for grief. You have to try to make the best of the situation," said Nagelsmann. "It's not nice to lose a good player," he said. But there are more important things in life to be really sad about.

One day before the championship celebrations on the balcony of the town hall in Munich, coach Nagelsmann's team couldn't get beyond a draw on the last day of the Bundesliga soccer game. Josip Stanisic gave Munich the lead in front of 30,000 spectators (17th minute). Lewandowski made it 2-0 (40'). Jonas Wind shortened the lead for Wolfsburg just before the half-time break and in the second half Max Kruse (58th) equalized for VfL, which was not undeserved. After the 2-2 draw against VfB Stuttgart and the 1-3 draw at Mainz 05, the record champions made a good start, but became too lazy as the game progressed. For the third time in a row, Munich didn't get three points - it wasn't a worthy end to the season for the Bayern stars.

Now the alternating theater around Lewandowski could cause further excitement. According to a report by Sport1, his advisor and FC Barcelona have agreed verbally on a transfer in the summer. The amount of the transfer fee could make Lewandowski's move to Barcelona impossible, at least for the time being, wrote the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo". Because if other big European clubs enter the fight for the top scorer, it could quickly become too expensive for the financially troubled FC Barcelona. However, the Spanish newspaper "Sport" reported that Bayern had allegedly lowered their claim to 35 to 40 million. Barça also "considered" such a sum, the newspaper continued.

Lewandowski got the top scorer cannon in the Bundesliga with a large lead over Patrik Schick from Leverkusen - who is being traded as one of his successor candidates. The top candidate is Sadio Mané from Liverpool FC. Sasa Kalajdzic from VfB Stuttgart is said to have moved into the focus of Munich. The 24-year-old's contract with the Swabians expires in a year.

After their tenth national triumph, Bayern are expected to attend internal celebrations in Munich on Saturday evening. On Sunday, the championship bash rises on the town hall balcony in Munich. Maybe for the last time with Lewandowski. In the curve, the Pole then hesitantly raised his fingers to the stadium hit "Sweet Caroline".
