Robert Lewandowski Weighs Barcelona Pay-Cut Offer as AC Milan Emerges as Leading Suitor

A decision by late April will guide Barcelona's move for a new centre-forward.

Overview

  • Lewandowski, whose deal ends this season, is evaluating Barcelona's one-year, lower-wage extension after his agent Pini Zahavi reviewed the proposal in Barcelona, according to Saturday reports.
  • Barcelona's stance limits him to a smaller on-field role next season as the club pursues a new No. 9, which sets the terms of any stay.
  • Following Friday reporting, he no longer treats Barcelona as his first choice after talks with AC Milan, who are reported to offer a longer contract and a bigger role.
  • Juventus, Chicago Fire in MLS, and several Saudi Pro League teams have also shown interest, giving the 37-year-old multiple pathways in Europe and beyond.
  • He plans to decide by the end of April or early May, and that call is expected to shape Barcelona's summer recruitment strategy.
