Barcelona Tables One-Year Offer to Lewandowski With 50% Pay Cut

A decision is expected by early May.

Overview

  • Barcelona have put forward a 12‑month extension with roughly a 50% salary reduction and performance bonuses, as reported Sunday by multiple outlets including SPORT, Yahoo Sports and Goal.
  • Lewandowski has not accepted the proposal and wants a direct talk with coach Hansi Flick to confirm his on‑field role before committing.
  • Richer multi‑year proposals are on the table from Juventus and AC Milan, with strong interest also reported from Turkey, MLS clubs such as Chicago Fire, and Saudi teams.
  • President Joan Laporta supports keeping the striker, yet the club will not match foreign offers due to budget rules and plans to recruit a younger center forward.
  • Barcelona expect an answer by late April or early May to guide summer moves, which could include targeting a new No. 9 and a possible sale of Ferran Torres.
