Lewandowski's wife hints at his departure from Barcelona at the end of the season
Anna Lewandowska, the wife of Barcelona star Robert Lewandowski, has sparked widespread controversy in Catalan sports circles regarding the future of the veteran Polish striker with the Blaugrana.
These statements come at a very sensitive time for the Catalan club, as the Polish striker enters the final months of his contract, opening the door to speculation about his next destination and whether his journey at Camp Nou is nearing its end.
The final season... explicit hints
In statements reported by the Spanish newspaper AS, Anna did not hesitate to put things in perspective, saying: “We will see how the season goes in Barcelona, because it will most likely be my husband’s last season here. We will enjoy every moment of it, we will enjoy every match with the fans, and we know that we will miss all of this one day.”.
The former karate champion and nutritionist, who plays a pivotal role in keeping her husband fit, added: "What will happen next? We don't know, but that's the nature of a great athlete, and we are ready for whatever comes next.".
A remarkable career and record-breaking achievements
Since joining Barcelona in the summer of 2012 from Bayern Munich in a high-profile transfer, Lewandowski has proven himself to be one of the best strikers in the world, despite his age. According to current figures, the Polish striker has played 172 matches for the Blaugrana, scoring 113 goals and providing 23 assists – numbers that reflect the significant contribution he has made to the team's attack.
Historical context and the potential impact of departure
Lewandowski arrived at Barcelona during a difficult transitional period following the departure of Lionel Messi, and he played a pivotal role in leading the team to reclaim the La Liga title thanks to his decisive goals. His potential departure would not only be a technical loss, but also a significant blow to the team, depriving them of a leader with vast experience who could guide the next generation of young talents like Lamine Yamal, Pedri, and Xavi.
Future scenarios
With Lewandowski turning 37 and less than six months remaining on his contract, attention is turning to his potential destinations. Reports in such cases typically point to growing interest from Major League Soccer (MLS) or the Saudi Professional League, both of which have become preferred destinations for top stars in the twilight of their careers. Barcelona's management will have to carefully consider a suitable replacement for a goal-scoring machine of Lewandowski's caliber should his departure at the end of the season be confirmed.
