This is Lewandowski third season with Barcelona and for his first season he gave surprise with 23 goal and 7 assists in La Liga but last season he experienced decline, but now when it is still early in the season Lewandowski has shown his greatness and sharpness as striker in creating goal.
He is 36 years old and clearly this is not productive age for football player, but Lewandowski has managed to prove that he is still worthy of competing with the young stars owned by several other team, by the way Lewandowski has contract until 2026 and I wonder if there will be an extension for the player or not.
Yes, this season Lewandowski's performance has been very good at Barcelona, because until the 12th week, Lewandowski was able to score 14 goals and became Laliga's temporary top scorer. I am also quite impressed with Lewandowski's current performance, because at the age of 36, Lewandowski is still able to play well like a young player. To be honest, before this season started, I personally had a little doubt about Lewandowski, because I saw that Lewandowski's performance in the previous season was quite bad. But after this season started, it turned out that my doubts were refuted. Maybe after Barcelona changed coaches, Lewandowski felt comfortable with the current Barcelona coach in terms of strategy and formation. So this makes it easier for him to be productive in scoring goals. Apart from that, the arrival of new players like Dani Olmo also seems to have made Barcelona's midfield more agile, so that Barcelona's attack flow is always good.
Then talking about Lewandowski's contract, I personally haven't heard any news about whether his contract will be extended or not. However, if we think realistically and also look at Lewandowski's age, I don't think he has high hopes of getting a contract extension. Because in 2026, when Lewandowski's contract at Barcelona will expire, Lewandowski will be 38 years old, and I think at that age Lewandowski's performance will definitely decline. That's why I think the possibility of Lewandowski's contract extension is very small. Maybe if, for example, Lewandowski's performance continues to be stable, he might be able to get a contract extension, but it won't be for long, at most only one season.
