Lewandowski weighs extension doubts as Barcelona delay contract decision

Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona)
November 2025

With his deal up in June 2026, Lewandowski wants to stay but Barcelona have not committed to an extension or defined his role. Despite fewer minutes, he leads the club in La Liga scoring with seven, keeping pressure on decision-makers as planning intensifies. Internal debate pits guaranteed goals and leadership against freeing significant salary to fund a long-term No.9. Saudi offers hold little appeal; family preference is to remain in Barcelona. Outcome hinges on financial structure and sporting vision aligned before the final contract year.
