Lewandowski was caught explaining his feelings to the coaching staff and physios about his recovery process after some muscle discomfort
As expected, Robert Lewandowski will not be part of FC Barcelona's debut this Saturday in LaLiga 2025/26 against RCD Mallorca; meanwhile, he continues to train separately from the group, as he is suffering from discomfort in the biceps femoris of his left leg, from which he is recovering.
Even in the last training session before the match that will be played in Son Moix, the Pole held a long meeting with the physios and the coaching staff, led by Hansi Flick.
Likewise, 'Lewan' was seen during the session carrying out what appeared to be a detailed explanation of his physical sensations and the evolution of his muscle discomfort. The striker continues with a progressive recovery, under daily monitoring, according to recent information.
Lewandowski faces his last season with Barça
Robert is living the last season stipulated in his contract as a player for the Blaugrana team. Apparently, the 'killer' has rejected offers from Saudi football in his desire to stay in the European elite.
According to his agent, Pini Zahavi, the center forward a year ago ignored a proposal of 100 million euros per season to join the Middle East. 'Lewy' has remained firm in his intentions to play as many seasons as possible at Barcelona, in addition to the fact that both he and his family feel very comfortable in the Ciudad Condal.
It should be noted that 'Lewan' in three seasons (147 games) has managed to score 101 goals and provide 20 assists, also winning two leagues, two Spanish Super Cups and a Copa del Rey.
Ferran Torres, the favorite to cover Lewandowski's absence
In principle, it is expected that the native of Warsaw will miss, in addition to the match against Mallorca, also the matches against Levante and Rayo Vallecano, so the best positioned, for now, to cover his absence is Ferran Torres.
The 'Shark' was already the attacking weapon for the center of the attack last season when Robert was not available due to injury or rest. In addition, the Valencian scored 19 goals as a revulsive.
Likewise, the coach also has Dani Olmo, whom he can use as a false '9', something that would not be an experiment, since it is something he did during the 24/25 season.
He could also have Marcus Rashford, who is waiting for his registration to be resolved a little more than 24 hours before the match, but in case the Englishman is not enabled, Barça still has enough troops to cover the gap that 'Lewy' is leaving for now.
