There are rumors suggesting that Barcelona forward Robert Lewandowski could depart the club before his current deal ends, a claim reported by SPOR.es. The article notes a clause in the contract allowing Barcelona to terminate early after the 2024/2025 season if Lewandowski participates in less than 55 percent of the matches. The agreement then runs through the summer of 2026, keeping Lewandowski tied to Barcelona for the time being.
In domestic play this season, the Polish striker has appeared in 13 of 15 La Liga fixtures, tallying seven goals, including two from the penalty spot, and three assists. On December 3, Barcelona secured a 1-0 victory over Atletico Madrid, with João Félix providing the decisive goal for his side.
Lewandowski has also taken part in four of the five Champions League matches, managing to score once. Barcelona advanced to the knockout playoffs as a result, continuing their campaign in Europe for another phase of the competition.
Lewandowski joined Barcelona in 2022 after eight seasons with Bayern Munich, following a stint with Borussia Dortmund from 2010 to 2014. His move to Spain marked a chapter in a career defined by prolific goal-scoring and European success, including multiple league titles and continental honors that extended his reputation beyond his home country.
A former footballer commented that the 2010 Ballon d’Or should have gone to him instead of Messi, a remark that underscored the long-running debates about peak form and recognition in world football. The discussion around Lewandowski’s legacy continues to be shaped by his consistency, longevity, and the big moments that have defined his career on both club and international stages.
