Lewandowski Ends Barcelona Spell with Final Goal, Reaches 120 Club Goals

His departure will free wage space to help Barcelona meet LaLiga's financial rules.

Overview

  • Lewandowski played his final match for Barcelona on May 24, scoring the team’s only goal in a 3-1 loss to Valencia at the Mestalla.
  • The goal took his Barcelona total to 120, moving him into the club’s all-time top ten scorers alongside names such as Rivaldo, Luis Suárez and Josep Escola.
  • Across four seasons he won seven trophies with Barcelona, including three LaLiga titles, and helped restore the club’s competitive standing despite fewer starts and injury issues this campaign.
  • With his contract expiring in June he will become a free agent and is reported to have interest from clubs in the Saudi Pro League, MLS and Europe, though no new deal has been confirmed.
  • Barcelona will gain roughly €24 million in wage relief from his exit, a boost for LaLiga compliance that also leaves the club with a clear need to replace his goals, experience and leadership on the pitch.
