Robert Lewandowski, at 36 years of age, is still a highly valued striker on the international sports scene. The Warsaw native, who has just scored 42 goals in 52 appearances in the 2024/25 season, still has several suitors at the door who do not rule out making an offer to the Azulgrana team this summer.
In this regard, according to Mundo Deportivo, several teams from the Saudi Pro League remain attentive to Lewy's situation at Barça. Some of them have even sounded out his entourage to gauge his willingness to change scenery in this same summer transfer window.
Barcelona's dilemma regarding Saudi interest in Lewy: keep him or sell him?
With this scenario in mind, Barcelona's position on this Arab interest in Lewandowski is unknown. It is clear that this case presents a good number of pros and cons. In principle, the forecast seems to be that Robert will not move from the Ciudad Condal team this season.
The former Bayern Munich player has just had an impeccable season in terms of numbers. If you add to that the fact that he still has an enviable physique, these are two strong arguments to believe in his permanence at Can Barça.
Can the Azulgrana club afford to lose their starting '9' this summer?
Likewise, the '9' culé is still a top-level striker. If Barcelona dispenses with his services, they would have to go to the market in search of a guaranteed center forward. Regardless of whether the Blaugrana team has Ferran Torres, Marcus Rashford, and Dani Olmo, who can play in that area, none of them is a natural '9' with the characteristics of the Warsaw native.
However, the possible sale of Robert Lewandowski, thinking purely in economic terms, might not be such a crazy move for Barça. The former Borussia Dortmund player is in his last year of contract with the Culé entity, and if there is no renewal offer soon, he will leave for free in the next summer market.
Therefore, if he is transferred at this time, Barcelona could take the opportunity to get an economic benefit from Lewy, especially if the offer coming from Saudi Arabia is economically attractive. Beyond the transfer price, the club would also free itself from one of the highest salaries in the squad.
Lewandowski and his entourage, focused on the present
Now, in this negotiation, it is not only necessary to take into account the position of the Barcelona team, but also that of Robert Lewandowski, who, for the moment, gives the impression of being focused on his current situation as a Culé, without contemplating moving in this summer transfer market. In addition to this, both he and his family feel comfortable in the Ciudad Condal.
However, in the world of football, no door can ever be completely closed. From Saudi Arabia, a stellar salary offer could arrive for Lewandowski, who could see in this opportunity his last great professional contract. In turn, he would join an emerging league that is hiring good players and whose level is starting to rise little by little. It would not be, then, a total renunciation of the competitive aspect.
Will there be a 'Lewandowski case' in this summer market?
With all this in mind, it remains to be seen whether or not there is a 'Lewandowski case' at Barcelona in this summer market. Only time will tell how the market moves around the figure of the Polish striker and whether, this time, Arabia does manage to tempt him or if it happens as in the past, when their attempts were unsuccessful.
