Overview
- Barcelona hold a 12‑month option on Robert Lewandowski’s deal, with UK reports indicating the club is unsure about triggering it due to age and high‑press demands under Hansi Flick.
- Lewandowski’s contract is set to expire at the end of this season, and if the option is not used Manchester United could attempt to sign him on a free transfer next summer.
- No formal approach or confirmation has been reported by either club, with the latest claims sourced to national and regional outlets.
- Lewandowski is 37 and has scored four goals in nine appearances so far this season, according to the reports.
- Manchester United, who signed Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig for about £74m this summer, are portrayed as short on experienced forwards, and Lewandowski has previously said he once “said yes” to joining United.
