I think Lewandowski made a very risky career choice. He can continue to work wonders in Barcelona as he did in Bayern Munich. I have no doubts about his abilities. But I don't know if the team can adapt to him. He was part of an ongoing order at Bayern Munich for many years. Now he goes to Barcelona as a savior. I hope things go well for him and he has an unforgettable experience in Barcelona.
Not only Lewandowski, but Barcelona is also taking a very risky decision since they're signed an expensive player while their financial aren't in good condition. I believe they're want achieve to get a trophy and it will make their financial slightly better, but if it goes wrong, they need to expect their decision to sign Lewandowski is a bad move.

I have just seen it on Transfermarkt yeah. I'm happy for their side honestly. This was their main issue in the end. In addition to this transfer I expect them to sign one more defender. They are still in talks with Manchester City for Nathan Ake now and maybe even Kounde can come too. Chelsea had better go for Kounde first if they really want him because Manchester City don't have interest in him as long as they keep Ake. However maybe they can give up on looking for another defender too while having Thiago Silva.
I doubt Manchester City will sell Nathan Ake, there's a news Chelsea have an interest to sign Presnel Kimpembe from PSG, so it might either Kounde or Kimpembe will join Chelsea.

I don't think Lewandowski took as much as risk as Barcelona did, Lewandowski is already almost 34 years old, and I don't Bayern Munchen would have renewed his contract next year beyond a year or two at most, and with Barcelona he very likely the going to get 2-3 years worth of deal as well, he barely has anything to lose, he's had an already illustrious career that most player would give everything to have. However, Barcelona on the other hand have taken a huge risk, and more so a financially unwise decision, given their current financial status and the amount the club will have to pay in terms of wages, the team literally cannot afford to go another year without silverware else it'll be back to how awful things were after the previous board left, if not far worse.

To be honest, I didn't expect this to finally become a reality, because so far the Lewandowski transfer saga has been quite complicated and long-winded to take up a lot of time even though Lewandowski actually wanted the move, Bayern Munich, who kept charging high prices for Lewandowski, forced Barcelona to fail again and again to finalizing the deal and it looked like a move would be impossible when Lewandowski started his return to training camp with Bayern Munich, but now Barcelona fans should be relieved and grateful that Barcelona has managed to land one of the best strikers in the world.
The signing of Lewandowski was quite time-consuming for Barcelona because their offer was rejected several times but in the end Bayern agreed to Barcelona offer. Lewandowski is very interested in joining Barcelona because maybe he wants to experience the Ballon d'or with Barcelona in the future. It will be interesting to enter the LaLiga competition next season because the arrival of Lewandowski will increase the prestige of LaLiga as it used to be because there is already fierce competition in the title race next season.
Because it was Lewandowski's wish for Barcelona and in the end they managed to play in LaLiga and compete with Real Madrid to be Barcelona's toughest opponent.
Lewandowski seems to have a good plan and he is a very good player even though he is 33 years old but for the next two seasons he will be fine and I would not expect his performance to drop with age but this is the love he wants to play at Barcelona.

It must be admitted, Barcelona moves in the transfer market this time is very brave. When their financial condition was not in good condition, Barcelona actually brought in expensive players. Joan Laporta has big ambitions to face next season, he is very confident that the project he is building can bring benefits to Barcelona. My assumption is that Joan Laporta has a big target next season by bringing in players with the Star label, besides being able to increase ticket sales, Laporta wants Barcelona to become champions in La Liga and the UCL.

Before leaving for Barcelona, Robert Lewandowski bid his teammates at Bayern Munich farewell and Lewandowski says that after finishing what may be his final practice for Die Roten on Saturday, he will move on.
 Due to their financial difficulties, Barca had doubts about the move, but they have recently started to recover financially and now Barcelona hopes to finalise the signing this weekend after reaching a €50 million agreement with Bayern.

That was very good of Lewandoski, I was emotional reading he bid farewell to the team and staff.
Bayern Munich president has also said good of him after so many years with him.
He had won everything with Bayern Munich a complete player entirely.
Robert Lewandowski has given Bayern a lot and for the rest of his career I think it's a really big step he made to choose to join Barcelona.
this transfer has been very late and now finally the wishes of the Barcelona team and the desire of Robert Lewandowski to play for Barcelona have been realized, I think for La Liga this is the best transfer of the season.

I don't think Manchester city need any other player right now, cause with their recent squad they can be a tough opponent in every competition, -snip-
I don't think so. If Nathan Aké will move to Chelsea, Man City needs 1 new center-back at least. I think 3 center-backs aren't enough for the whole season, how if they got injured? It will be a big problem if Man City has no good substitution for center-backs. Having good midfielders and front liners will get nothing if they have a weak defense. Man City must think about this seriously, they should have a plan to anticipate if Nathan Aké really leaves the club in this transfer window.

I don't understand why Guardiola is only looking to strengthen his forwards. The Forward and midfield are very strong in Manchester City. But compared to that their defense is very weak. Guardiola must strengthen his defense if he wants to win the Champions League and Premier League titles. If the defense is weak, Manchester City will not be able to survive on a platform like the Champions League. Guardiola will have to find his replacement very quickly if Nathan Ake leaves the team.
Dilas and Laporte are actually still very good and cannot be said to be weak in maintaining City's defense.
You can see in this season alone from all the leagues in the EPL running they have only conceded 26 goals there and this is not an easy achievement especially for the Premier League.
On the other hand City still holds the philosophy of the strongest defense is to continue to attack and this has indeed proven to be very effective until now.

Robert Lewandowski will complete his move to Barcelona this weekend, after Bayern Munich verbally accepted an increased offer worth 50m euros (£42.5m) for the Poland striker.
After selling Lewandowski, Bayern will increase their bid to Juventus for the Netherlands defender Matthijs de Ligt, 22, who has already agreed personal terms for a five-year contract.
So, Bayern obviously decided to make good money on Lewandowski and bring in a new football star.

Robert Lewandowski has finally got what he wanted. Good for him! I think that Bayern Munich have made a good choice by not forcing him. They weren't going to make any money if they decided to keep him for one more season. Now they can sign a good striker by using this money also. I'm not seeing any rumour about a striker for Bayern Munich. But they would start quickly to search for striker after this transfer. Some people said that they were thinking Mane in that position if Lewandowski left but I don't see it logical.

Didn't Mane play a pure striker - center forward role a few times under Klopp?  I've noticed that we've been seeing it recently and towards the end of last season.  I think Nagelsmann will def put him in that role and spearhead Bayern's attack in most of their matches.  It should be fun to watch.

And btw, if Ten Hag won't be the guy to bring United back to their former glory, hear this...  It's gonna be Nagelsmann if they get lucky enough to convince him to join them.

Why do you think Ten Hag can not get the job done ... They have some issues with the owners
The glazers are big drawback to Manchester United for the past season.
Go ask Jose Mourinho, Van Gaal and Ole Gunner, Glazer are not determine and ready to win like old ways.
Haven't you noticed the fans already ?

Lewa to Barca is almost done.

Source: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1548068332804272129

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)

I think Lewandowski to Barca is basically a done deal with all parties involved having no problems from a financial perspective.  I think we'll be seeing news of his arrival at Barcelona for at least the next few hours.

I know at his age, City has a policy not to sign players over 30 years old.  But I think they're missing out on somebody who could potentially bring them the UCL trophy.  Just check his performances in the UCL with Barca next season.  He'll be involved in the most crucial goals.

Am hearing rumours that deal between Bayern Munich and Barcelona is done. I think now their is hope that Lewandowski will be part of Barcelona squad for next season. Laliga will be more interesting in next season, Barcelona squad might be just tough  just like the Real Madrid team.

After Raphinha, now Lewandowski. I am very impressed with Barcelona progress in this hot window. they brought in two important players this week. Lewandowski is likely to fly to Barcelona this Friday and it seems that Lewandowski is very happy after Bayern accepted Barcelona proposal. We'll see Lewandowski farewell interview with Bayern Munich in the next few days. Barcelona are very strong next season and I think Real Madrid will have a hard time defending the La Liga trophy.
The Barcelona we knew during Xavi, Iniesta, and Messi period is ready to return again thanks to Xavi's increased efforts in constructing his team. These signings will significantly improve the players' performances and give them more confidence to compete in all competitions. In order to effectively compete with Real Madrid the next season, this is the Barcelona we wanted to see.

Manchester United are convinced Frenkie de Jong is committed to joining the club despite reports in Spain that the Netherlands midfielder, 25, is desperate to stay at Barcelona. It seems to me that Frenkie de Jong is behaving quite unreasonably. Why stay in a club that doesn't want you and where you won't play and reject a good offer from a club that wants you and where you will definitely play? It is obvious that Ronaldo does not want a rich football retirement just yet and wants to fight for new trophies.
AC Milan are close to announcing a new contract for 40-year-old Sweden forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic.  Zlatan is truly a football and human phenomenon. How much longer can he play at the top level?

Chelsea had signed Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli on a four years contract to replace Rudiger, the guy is a very solid and quality defender who will compliment Tiago Silva at Chelsea backline he is a perfect replacement, though he is 31 he is playing at the top level and one of the best centre back in Europe that is why he was signed for a four years contract despite being 31 while Tiago is 37, I believe the duo has the needed experience to assist Chelsea in their defence, hopefully he will settle down and adapt quickly before the commencement of the premier league in August 5.

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.

I didnt expect this transfer to go in Barcelonas way at all with how their finacical situation is. I really dont understand from where are they getting all of this money with their huge debt. Lewandowski is a perfect signing for them and should probobly close the transfer window for them.
