Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski has indicated that he will soon decide on his future amidst speculation about Harry Kane potentially replacing him. Lewandowski, aged 37, is approaching the end of his contract with Barcelona at the end of this season, prompting the club to prepare for his departure.
By June, Kane is expected to have just a year remaining on his contract with Bayern Munich, triggering a £57 million release clause. While Tottenham holds the first option, Barcelona is poised to make a move for the English striker.
Recent reports suggest that La Liga champions view Kane, aged 32, as the ideal successor to Lewandowski, who Kane effectively replaced at Bayern Munich. However, Kane has expressed openness to extending his contract with Bayern, raising the possibility that Barcelona may offer Lewandowski a new deal.
Despite scoring a hat-trick in Barcelona’s recent match against Celta Vigo, Lewandowski remains undecided about his future. He stated, “I’ll soon be ready to decide which path I want to take and I’ll see what my options are,” before contributing to Poland’s 1-1 draw with the Netherlands.
Acknowledging that his career is nearing its end, Lewandowski feels invigorated at Barcelona and enjoys the support of younger teammates. While reflecting on his successful past season, Lewandowski emphasized his desire to maximize his time in football both athletically and emotionally.
