Star striker Robert Lewandowski signed upon his arrival at Barca a contract in which his salary increases from year to year, and especially next season his salary has been budgeted to rise significantly, which has led the management to take action.
After hard work from both Joan Laporta and the sporting leadership, before the start of last season, Robert Lewandowski managed to bring Robert Lewandowski to the club as the team’s very big star, and precisely the significant status was also reflected in the pole’s contract. Now, however, management is trying to lower Lewandowski’s salary towards next season.
It was especially Joan Laporta’s good relationship with agent Pini Zahavi, who represents Robert Lewandowski, who allowed Barca to present the then 34-year-old star striker as the key figure in the team’s reconstruction before the start of last season. Also at that time, Barca had problems with the wage ceiling, so the parties signed an agreement on a contract with a gradually rising salary.
The newspaper SPORT says that Lewandowski, which begins its third season this summer, faces a significant pay rise when the 2024/2025 season begins. Although Lewandowski has experienced a form dive this season, the management has continued to confidence that the pole will end the season with a nice target statistics, and although several offers from Saudi Arabia are lurking, neither the striker nor the club has a shift in mind.
However, the coveted offers from the Middle East should mean that Barca wants to renegotiate the pole’s salary for next season, because if Lewandowski emphasizes the sporting highest, the club does not think it should be a problem to lower its salary and help the club. Should the pole reversing the economy highest, a big sale to Saudi Arabia will be a good solution for both parties.
When Robert Lewandowski arrived in Barca in 2022, the pole signed a contract for four seasons. However, there have been reports in the past that the last year in the contract contains a number of clauses, which include playing time, which will be able to cancel the contract already this summer. From the club’s perspective and with the economy in mind, the upcoming season is the most important, which is why management will try to renegotiate the pay conditions in the coming months.
Since his arrival in September 2022, Lewandowski has played 67 games in the Barca jersey, scored 42 goals and made 13 assists.
