Barcelona Offer Lewandowski Pay-Cut Deal as They Target Álvarez and Osimhen
FC Barcelona plan to extend Robert Lewandowski’s stay by one year, but only if the 37-year-old accepts a 50% salary reduction. The club sees him as a backup striker and mentor in the dressing room. Lewandowski values life in Catalonia over offers from MLS or Saudi Arabia. Since his 2022 arrival, he has helped Barcelona win two La Liga titles, two Copa del Rey trophies and three Spanish Super Cups. Meanwhile, Barcelona are chasing a new first-choice striker. Julián Álvarez is their top target, with Victor Osimhen also under consideration. To fund these transfers and meet LaLiga’s financial rules, the club intends to sell Ferran Torres. Despite 16 goals this season, Torres has been out of form since late January, and this summer window is seen as the best chance to cash in.
