Robert Lewandowski He has recovered his best version in 2024. The Polish striker has returned to his old self and proof of this is his scoring figures this season. His great performance has once again placed him as the great priority objective of Saudi Arabia looking ahead to next season. The Saudi Pro League He will not spare his efforts and will go all out for the 35-year-old forward with a contract that is close to 100 million euros per season. A real outrage to place him among one of the best paid in the world.
As you well know, Saudi Arabia He doesn't care what, when and how. He only cares about notoriety, being the center of the world and having the best players on the planet. Regardless of the age or the state of fitness they are going through. They signed Benzema at 35 years old, Neymar in the most absolute decadence and now they want to do the same with a Lewandowski who is taking his last steps as a professional footballer. And for this they try to convince him with some 100 million euros annually. An amount impossible to reach in Europa for any club, even state clubs PSG y Manchester City.
Last summer and when Lewandowski He had just had a very weak 2023, Saudi Arabia He pressed in the last days of the market to convince the Pole. But Barcelona He refused to do so. Firstly because he had been the great architect of winning the league championship, secondly because it was too late to find a replacement at that point; and lastly because it had only been a year since he had been signed from Bayern de Munich.
According to reports Sports world, Lewandowski He is clear that he wants to continue at Barcelona until his contract ends. The Pole has said (and will say) “no” to Saudi Arabia despite having made him one of the biggest offers in world sport. The '9' culé has a contract until June 30, 2025, but with the option to extend the contract until 2026 depending on objectives.
Lewandowski's great form
This season is being different than last. Lewandowski He already has 20 goals in all competitions, 13 of them in the League and only three from Pichichi, which is Bellingham. The Pole spoke about the same thing recently in an interview, where he showed his happiness for having recovered his goal-scoring nose: «I have won and I have scored many goals. I am very, very happy and very content. Right now, myself included, we have to score more goals and win more games. “We are at a moment where we can not only win, but also play better.”
Lewandowski is happy in Barcelona and on several occasions he has reiterated his desire to remain in Barcelona next season. Whatever happens and whoever arrives, the Pole will continue wearing Barça even if Saudi Arabia puts him on the table for more than 100 million euros per season.
