Barcelona’s management is facing a significant state of concern, not because of an injury or a defeat in matches, but due to the decline in the performance of Polish star Robert Lewandowski before his latest injury. The player, once considered the cornerstone of the Catalan project following Messi’s departure, has recently been far from his usual level, raising questions both within the dressing room and the corridors of the club.
According to sources, Barcelona president Joan Laporta is worried that Lewandowski may have begun considering his future away from Camp Nou. Some speculation suggests that the Polish striker may have already reached an undisclosed agreement to leave Barcelona next summer. These concerns are rooted in the player’s noticeable decline in form, along with his underwhelming performances with his national team, which could indicate a lack of enthusiasm for continuing his career at the club.
