In the transfer poker around Bayern’s Robert Lewandowski, it is becoming increasingly unlikely that the Pole will actually switch to FC Barcelona – the financial construct of the over-indebted Catalans seems too shaky. Paris Saint-Germain is now on the scene.
Surprising: Paris Saint-Germain are interested in Robert Lewandowski. According to “L’Equipe”, the French champions regard the Poles as a “supplementary profile” to the existing offensive trio of Kylian Mbappé, Lionel Messi and Neymar to reduce.
Short, compact, clear
Change is unlikely: Bringing Lewandowski to Paris depends first of all on Bayern Munich, who do not want to let him go – and on FC Barcelona, the Pole’s declared dream destination. In the past few days, Lewandowski had repeatedly emphasized that if he left Bayern, he would only consider one club as a new home.
Clammy Catalans: PSG can still hope for Lewandowski. Because it is questionable whether the Catalans, who are ailing with debts of 1.35 billion euros, can even afford the Poles. Only from a transfer fee of 40 million euros or more should Bayern be willing to negotiate at all – which PSG would pay out of petty cash. The Munich team rejected an offer from FC Barcelona for 32 million.
