Bayern Munich set to accept Barcelona’s latest offer for Lewandowski

I have seen many news that Barcelona and Bayern Munich are going to finalize the deal regarding Lewandowski. Since Lewandowski does not want to stay with Bayern Munich. So Munich finalized the deal with Barcelona. Barcelona recently signed Raphinha. Now they will be stronger if they have an experienced player like Lewandowski on the team. And to be sure, Xavi is aiming for both the Champions League and La Liga titles next season.

Yeah Lewandowski to Barcelona is reported as done deal now by many good sources on twitter, so its just matter of time before he becomes Barcelona player officially. Lot of drama around him but glad that Bayern eventually accepted Lewandowski's request. I still wonder at what price his move has been finalised.
Also this seems like should be the last signing for Barcelona as I think their squad is all complete now. Furthermore signing will only add to their financial problems.

Barcelona cost around 58 million to sign Raphinha. And getting Lewandowski into the team is going to cost Barcelona more than 50 million. Barcelona has to take loaned a huge amount of money. If they don't win a title next season, they will face more problems financially. So besides strengthening the team, stabilizing the team is a very big challenge for Xavi. At the same time, Lewandowski has to prove his own abilities.

You are right. Juventus are looking to stabilize their forwards and midfield this season with the addition of Di Maria and Pogba. Now if De Ligt goes to Bayern Munich, Juventus will have to find a new defender. Finding a talented defender like De Ligt will be a tough task for Juventus. Perhaps next season we will see a slightly weaker defense from Juventus.

If De Ligt leaves Juventus, of course Juventus will move quickly to find a replacement. maybe this time Villarreal defender Pau Torres is the player Massimiliano Allegri is targeting in the transfer market this summer, he is one of the names that is widely rumored to be the target of Juventus if De Ligt officially leaves. Negotiations are ongoing at the moment as Villareal are rumored to be pegging the defender for €50m. Juventus envoys are in talks with Pau Torres agent if in the next few days an agreement is reached. I'm sure Juventus will release De Ligt to Bayern Munich because Bayern are the front-runners who want to get De Ligt.

I also don’t understand why they are not trying to improve the midfield of the team, instead of just obsessing over increasing the attacking power. They don’t have a reliable midfield and they have a lot of problems in the defense as well. Although they did not score enough goals last season, they are still trying to increase the power of their attack. They really should understand that they were not able to score a large number of goals because the midfield was really weak. The supply of balls was not reliable at all. So when there are fewer chances created, there will be fewer chances taken. So the goal count will obviously be lower.

I think the major positions to direct their concentration to should be their defense line then their midfield. Last season Manchester United had a very shitty defense and the worse of it was Maguire's performance, he made 16 errors leading to their opponents getting a goal and this issue should also be taken seriously but they are yet to do something about Harry Maguire. Erik Ten Hag has shown his confidence in Maguire, he said Maguire will retain the captain band next season which is really surprising to me. Relying on Fred and McTominay seems very risky to me.

Although sources close to Manchester City claim that there is no arrangement in place to sell Bernardo Silva to Barcelona this summer, City has dismissed this as rumor and is understood to have no plans to release Silva.

Manchester city has released several players in the transfer market this season and brought in several players who are considered to be able to contribute to them next season, some star players have brought in manchester city to strengthen their squad next season, the desire of guardiola to fulfill his dream and also manchester fans City to get the Champions League trophy, of course, forced Guardiola to fix the existing squad, besides that it looks like Manchester City will try to keep some players like Bernardo Silva who do have a big contribution to every game and Manchester City victory so far.

Manchester City have a very good team with squad depth. One could argue they have one of the best squad in the premier league and in Europe. Their squad is so good that they have some players who are surplus to requirements, they have to sell some and replace them with better talented players for the next season as they hope to conquer Europe by winning the champions league next season. It will be Pep Guardiola's dream to win the champions league next season. I believe Yaya Toure has revoked the uefa trophy curse on Guardiola lol

Manchester City is so hungry for the Champions League trophy right now. You know, last season they got pretty close, but they could not win the trophy. They had it in their grasp for so long until the last 20 or 30 minutes of the match. They also did really well in the English Premier League and I don’t think they will have any problem winning that EPL title again. I think the only problem seems to be Liverpool. In the last season, Liverpool was the only team that challenged them. I also agree that Manchester City has done a good job managing the wage budget of that club.

And now Bayern has the money for DeLigt (Juventus wants 80-90m)
Juventus will try to steal Bremer from Inter (he has a deal with them and/or go for Pau Torres/Gabriel)

Thank god this transfer drama around Lewandowski is now finally over. I think we can now be 100% sure that he will leave Bayern Munich for Barcelona because Oliver Kahn has just confirmed like an hour ago that Bayern and Barca has reached a verbal agreement about the transfer of Lewandoswki. As a Bayern supporter i am happy that they let Lewandowski go because it is not good to force a player to stay at your club if he does not want to. This is not good for the performance of the player himself but also for the mood of the whole team i would imagine.
Secondly i also think like you that Bayern now has pretty good chances to get De Ligt, which would be a great transfer.

It's good to hear this deal with Lewandowski and Barcelona is finally over as we have followed the transfer for days weeks with much suspense. I'm really shocked Barcelona were able to get this deal through after paying a huge amount for Raphinha from Leeds but the deal is done now and Bayern Munich have cashed in from the transfer and now have extra funds to bid for De ligt.

So surprising that Barcelona finally got Lewandowski in their team, I never knew Barcelona will be able to get Lewandowski despite they couldn't meet up with the funds for the signing of Lewandowski. Barcelona ìs good to go now to win laliga next season, the team is complete.

Barcelona has shown several surprises. They signed Raphinha for 58 million. And bought Lewandowski for about 50 million. Everyone thought that maybe Barcelona would buy Lewandowski with the money from the sale of de Jong. But it didn't happen. Barcelona has not sold de Jong yet. Undoubtedly, Barcelona is going to be the strongest team in La Liga next season.

Bayern Munich are expected to increase their offer for de Ligt after selling Lewandowski. They are trying their best to strengthen their defense first. After handling this situation successfully I will be expecting them to go for a centre-forward transfer as well. I don't even want to see Mane playing there. He should be playing as a winger as always. It can be really difficult for Bayern Munich to find a centre-forward like Lewandowski but they should be able to sign a solid one still.

I congratulate Barcelona because Robert Lewandowski can be released by Bayern Munich. Initially, Bayern Munich was skeptical of Barcelona, but regardless of that reason all that made him agree to provide fresh space for Barcelona. You certainly know Xavi is a coach who has a dangerous strategy, able to improve Barcelona's players with scary modes of play. Everyone was impatient, wanting to see what could be done with this extremely dangerous formation.

It's a new beginning for Robert Lewandowski and Barcelona as this transfer window's most wanted deal going to complete in next few days specially good for De Ligt because this could be also good for his future he can do much better here with better environment and having better timing of playing which is important for him and his good future in this game.

But, now things are more challenging for Xavi as he is taking big risk with bringing quality players, and now it's his turn how he deal and give results with this all because if he fails than surely it's going to be nightmare for him and Barcelona which is already having financial troubles and looking for best results at both levels in La Liga and Champions League.

Manchester United have finally completed the transfer of Lisandro Martinez from Ajax. It is a five-year deal. It is worth 55 million euros plus add-ons. I'm happy for them because they needed to consolidate their defense after seeing Maguire's horrible performance. Now their main target must be signing a midfielder. It had better be a defensive midfielder also. Frenkie de Jong has been the most powerful candidate for this in the recent times but we will see.

Yeah thankfully the Lewandowski deal is over now. Barcelona were very stubborn about signing him and they have finally made it. Barcelona have completed this transfer for more than €50m with bonuses. I really don't know from where Barcelona have found this much money to spend but anyway. This transfer was critical for the Champions League as well. I expect Barcelona to be more competitive in offense now. I wonder who Bayern Munich will find for Lewandowski's place.

Finally the Lewandowski and Bayern thing is over. Many weeks of negative discussion and strange news and then even a wrong move because he was late in the training for three days. At the last day he picked all up. He was never injured and always scored a lot of goals in the last few years, if the same will happen at Barcelona? +30 goals in the league, let's see.

Well... it is also a perfect transfer for Bayern too.
They got 50m for a 34 yo player with 1 year left in his contract.
Not sure who did the best move between Barca and Bayern but probably the german team.

I totally agree that Bayern made a great deal here for several reasons. First of all i think in general it is a great deal when you get 50 Million Euros for a player that is already 34 years old and that only has one more year of contract before he can leave the club for no transfer fee at all. Secondly it is a even more good deal for Bayern because the timing is also perfect in my opinion. Bayern is heavily interested in Matthijs De Ligt and if the reports are true then De Ligt also wants to come to Bayern. The problem so far was that Juventus wants around 70 Million € for him which is a huge amount, but now with the money from the Lewandowski transfer it could be doable for Bayern.

He is one of their best players and is playing each season better and better. Now with Sterling gone he will have a lot of space and time to play more in their games. So i think he made the right choice to extend his contract and this is good for both Mahrez and Man City.

Mahrez game and way of playing really attracted Pep Guardiola interest to stay with him for the next 2 seasons. Mahrez last season really made a big contribution to what Manchester City has achieved. From last season's record, Mahrez performed well with Manchester City, both in the domestic league and in the Champions League, he is really needed by Manchester City, especially after losing Raheem Sterling, I think he will get more playing minutes next season. Mahrez is the best pass for Haaland in the next season and we can see both of them in action next season, will both of them really look stunning as expected by pep guardiola.

Man City has officially announced the extension of Mahrez's contract. Txiki Begiristain as Man City's director of football hopes that Mahrez can continue
to contribute to Man City. Since Mahrez joined Man City 4 years ago, it has been seen that his role is very important, several times Mahrez scored
important goals for Man City. Even Mahrez has helped Man City win 8 trophies during 4 years with Man City, including winning 3 Premier League trophies,
this is a great achievement for Mahrez. Hopefully next season Mahrez after extending the contract can be more motivated to help Man City win
the Champions League trophy. I also can't wait to see Mahrez will play with Haaland, I hope Mahrez can support Haaland, because Haaland does need
a player like Mahrez who can help open up space and provide assists, so that Haaland can score a lot of goals next season.

This comes as a good news to the Manchester City fans after successfully getting one of their star players to renew his contract with the club. Pep Guardiola will be very happy with having Mahrez in his team until 2025 because he will fill the void with more playing time. I'm pretty sure Mahrez himself will be happy also and will give his best for the club.

Also Ibrahimovic is still injured and wont recover for a long time so i still dont see what kind of contract they can offer him.

Well Bayern Munich got their money off of Lewandowski and probobly covered all his salaries in the years when he was in Bayern Munich. But Bayern Munich staff wanted him badly to stay for 2-3 years at least but i guess Lewandowski wants a new challange

The rumors we got here in Italy are.

If DeLigt will leave then Juventus will go for 1 or 2 of these players

Bremer, very low chance. From Torino but he is promised to Inter.

Gabriel, they tried to get him in January with a swap with Arthur to Arsenal.

Pau Torres, he has a release clause and in case they can't find anyone they can just pay it.

I had to go and confirm this news immediately I saw your comment and as shocking as it is, its true! WTF is Thomas Tuchel really thinking?

Rumors has it that Thomas Tuchel is afraid of the media or he tries to stay away from it as possible and with Star players that's very difficult to do which didn't favour him at PSG before the taking the Chelsea job. If you notice previous two season, Thomas Tuchel boys performed very well unlike when the star player (with all the media attention) came into the picture, in the person of Lukaku. Maybe he's trying to avoid that as with players like Rinaldo, the media will be looking for the slightly things in training to use to cook up a story which might make the player lose focused.

Also Thomas Tuchel football doesn't revolved around a target man, which was why Lukaku struggled at Chelsea last season. Tuchel enjoys playing his football as a team effort instead of a targeted striker efforts. All this could be contributing to his decline decision and lets not forget, we still have Timo Werner, Kia Havertz and Armando Broja for the strikers position.

Romelu Lukaku complained about Tuchel’s team tactics and mentioned he was not comfortable with Tuchel's style of play. Before signing a player it is only wise to know if the player will fit into your style of play. Lukaku has always played and performed better being the targeted striker and if you go ahead to bring him to join your team and play him to fit in a different style of play you should be patient enough and give him enough time to adapt, not every player have the ability to adjust to every condition.

I am happy at the success of Barcelona in this transfer window. Since it was said that they are in bankruptcy, they have made so many decent signings and strengthening their team depth.
They refused to let go of De Jong and they have added Lewandowski into the squad which is indeed a superb signing.
When you look at the finish line of Barcelona which includes Memphis, Dembele and other guys that were there, then Aubameyang, Adama and the recent Lewandowski, it is obvious that Barcelona is coming to contend next season in both Laliga and champions league

The thing is that with all the signings now they have to start showing results. Its kind of going all in which is what Barcelona is doing right now. I am impressed with the signings and they better be showing results with Barca now. As for De Jong, reports are that both Barca and United have agreed for the fee it is now the player who doesn't wants to join United. I think that Xavi has too much of options and Barca will now offload some of the players. Adama is back to Wolves so we won't be watching him in Barca shirt and as for Barca's attack , I think it will be very much like Auba on the left, Lewandowski on the tip of the attack and Raphinha on the right. So in short to sum it out, crazy pacers on the wings and right now one of the best strikers Bundesliga has produced in the centre- it's gonna be crazy.

We heard from last season that Barcelona didn't have enough money. They still took Torres into the team. They have added Lewandowski and Raphinha to the squad despite not having money this season. I think Xavi will try to keep de Jong in the team now. Xavi has been able to strengthen the forward and midfield. Now Barcelona needs an experienced defender. Moreover, Barcelona now has 6 talented strikers. So in the next season, maybe we will see a change in Barcelona's formation and match strategy.
