- Bayern manages two types of renewal offer for the Polish striker
Oliver Kahn , Chairman of the Board of Directors of Bayern Munich , said that the club will do everything possible to keep Robert Lewandowski in the team for a long time.
“Robert Lewandowski is a phenomenon, not only because of his goals but also because of the level he has had for years” , Kahn told “Sport Bild” magazine. “There is not much to think about, naturally we will try to keep Robert with us”, he added.
Lewandowski has a contract with Bayern until June 2023, when the player will be 35 years old. “I can imagine him continuing to score 25, 30 or more goals a season,” Kahn said , despite the player’s age. “For us it’s like life insurance for the way he plays football. That’s why we’ll do everything to keep him with us for a long time,” he added.
According to unofficial information , Bayern is considering two variants for a renewal of Lewandowski . The first would be a renewal for just one more year , maintaining the current conditions, with a salary estimated at 24 million euros per year. With this, Bayern would maintain its custom of only renewing players over 30 for one year.
The other variant, in which Bayern would deviate from that custom, would be a renewal until 2025 with a reduction in salary.
Some media have also considered the possibility that, if an agreement is not reached, Lewandowski will not finish his contract and will be put on the market in June this year.
Bayern , according to these versions, would agree to let the Pole go for a price of around 60 million euros . Lewandowski arrived at Bayern free, in 2014, from Borussia Dortmund, where his contract ended.
