I do not quite understand Lewandowski's desire to leave Bayern, he is in his place, fits perfectly into the team and consistently scores a lot of goals. The desire to test his strength in other championships is good, but you are right, he is not so young anymore and it is not clear how well he can play in other clubs. The example of Messi shows that it is not so simple. Or the example of Ronaldo, when he left Real Madrid, he scored goals for Juventus and Manchester United, but is he happy with his decision to leave Real Madrid?
Money maybe? Not like he is not getting paid neither, he is getting paid a ton, but he could be getting paid even more, and that is why I believe that he is asking for more money as well. I have to say that the best thing about Lewa leaving would be him getting paid a serious amount of money, if that happens then it would make sense.
But in that case, is Barcelona the right place? Like could they offer him more than 20+ million a year? And would that be a good idea considering they already got into trouble by paying old players a ton of money? They could get young stars for that kind of money and then maybe even sell them later on for a higher amount of money as well.
