As Lewandowski enters the summer break, the experienced striker has made it clear in an interview with German Bild that he has no intention of leaving the club and that he is only focusing on Barcelona.
“I’ve won over 30 titles in my career. But I’m ready for more,” he said.
“This is not a topic for me. I’ll stay here next season. Right now, Barcelona is the only thing I’m thinking about. Our team is going to be even better next season.”
Lewandowski’s current contract with Barcelona runs until June 2026, but both parties have the option to extend for another year if he maintains his level.
Barcelona’s plans for Lewandowski this summer
Barcelona will be keeping a close eye on Lewandowski over the summer to ensure he returns in top form for pre-season.
The striker has already withdrawn from Poland’s national team squad for the June games due to exhaustion after a long season.
“Due to the circumstances and intensity of the club season, the coach and I have jointly decided that I will not participate in the Polish national team’s training session in June,” Lewandowski said.
The decision has met with some criticism in Poland, as one of the two matches is a World Cup qualifier against Finland. Now Lewandowski awaits one of the longest summer holidays of his career, with 7-8 weeks without games.
