Calendar of FC Barcelona

At 36 years old, Robert Lewandowski is experiencing one of his 'sweetest' moments since he has been defending the FC Barcelona shield. The striker started the 2024-2025 LaLiga season like a shot, scoring four goals in the first four rounds of the championship and being one of the main people responsible for the Barça squad's unbeaten run in the tournament. "Confidence, on the one hand, and tranquility on the other," was the scorer's justification for his great form, although it could have had another cause.

Juanjo Moral, president of Cade Paguera de Mallorca, a club on the Balearic island to which the field belongs where the Pole asked to train before the preseason with Barça, has given an interview to the program 'Que t'hi jugues!' on the 'SER' network and has revealed several details about the player's preparation before the start of the new season with the Barça squad.

"A person close to him asked me if we could open the pitch for him to train alone. I spoke to the board and we let him train behind closed doors. The condition was that it was closed and that the children did not step on the grass while he was training," Moral explained about the first contacts with Lewandowski's entourage.

In this regard, the club president revealed certain incidents of the footballer's routine during his stay at the Mallorcan facilities. "At 8 in the morning he started training, showered and left. He posted his training on the networks and we screwed up, because it was not as intimate as he thought. Outside there were children waiting to take photos, but they behaved very well," he confessed.

'Blow' to Real Madrid

Moral said that "I did not think it was a joke because they told me he was a Barça footballer, but they did not tell me his name. If he had called Florentino we would have told him that the pitch was closed." Jokingly, the director said that "we gave him everything he asked for: balls, spikes, small goals... If he asks me for a circus, I'll give him a circus. Even if they pay 2,000 euros a day, I wouldn't let Vinicius and Mbappé in." So it's clear that one of the keys to Robert's great start was his preparation during the summer, which demonstrates the striker's commitment to Flick's new project and that it's starting to bear fruit.
