Lewandowski Offers Himself to AC Milan as Free Agent, With Talks Under Way

Salary stands as the main hurdle at this stage of his career.

Overview

  • La Gazzetta dello Sport reported Friday that Robert Lewandowski has offered himself to AC Milan, and local reports say his representatives met the club this week to hear terms.
  • Milan is weighing a two-year deal that would make him a first-choice striker on a lower fixed wage with performance bonuses.
  • Barcelona plans to meet him to propose a one-year extension with a steep pay cut and incentives, a move pushed by club president Joan Laporta.
  • Juventus, Chicago Fire in MLS, Saudi teams, Atlético Madrid and Fenerbahçe are described as interested, though no firm bids have been reported.
  • At 37 and out of contract in July, he can negotiate freely under FIFA rules, and reports say he wants his next step settled by late April.
