Lewandowski has kicked off his third season at FC Barcelona in excellent form, scoring four goals and providing one assist in the first four La Liga matches.
Robert has put in the work to intensify his preparations, with one goal in mind: to enjoy scoring many goals again
- wrote "Sport", analyzing the reasons behind the Polish striker's form surge.
What About Robert Lewandowski's Future? This Is His Goal for the Season
The newspaper also delved into Lewandowski's future. It reminded readers that when Lewandowski joined Barcelona for €45 million in 2022, he signed a four-year deal (until the end of June 2026). In his first season, he earned €20 million gross, followed by €26 million in the second season, and now his salary has increased to €32 million.
Sport also pointed out a crucial clause in Lewandowski's contract. The fourth year of his contract depends on certain conditions being met this season.
The contract includes a clause that allows Barcelona to terminate the deal with Robert if he doesn’t play in 55 proc. of the matches. Only the matches in which he starts or plays at least 45 minutes count
- the article stated. If these conditions are met, Lewandowski would earn €26 million gross in his fourth season.
It doesn't seem like Lewandowski will have trouble reaching the 55 proc. threshold at the start of the season. He is a key player for Hansi Flick, who only gave him a rest in the final 15 minutes of the last match before the international break. Therefore, Lewandowski's 100 proc. participation so far virtually guarantees him a fourth season, which is his goal
- the article concluded.
Hansi Flick's team currently leads La Liga with a perfect 12 points after four rounds, holding a four-point lead over second-place Real Madrid. Barcelona's next match will be away against Girona on Sunday, September 15, at 4:15 p.m. You can follow the live text commentary of the match on Sport.pl and the Sport.pl LIVE mobile app.
