Overview
- Reports say Juventus sent an emissary to Poland during the international break to meet Robert Lewandowski and table an early offer.
- The contact reportedly took place around Poland’s win over Albania, with Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport cited by Football Italia, Yahoo Sports, and Goal.
- Lewandowski has said he will decide only after the season and he is waiting to see Barcelona’s proposal.
- Barcelona plan to offer a short deal on reduced pay, while Juventus weigh their own striker plans that include Dusan Vlahovic’s contract talks and interest in Randal Kolo Muani.
- Other options are in play, including AC Milan and MLS sides such as Chicago Fire and Orlando City, and his reported €12.5m Barcelona salary underscores the wage hurdle any bidder must clear.
