‘I’ll soon be ready to decide’ – Robert Lewandowski talks Barcelona future

Robert Lewandowski has vowed to make a decision on his future “soon” as he heads towards the end of his contract at Barcelona.

As things stand, the 37-year-old will be able to walk away on a free transfer next year, although it’s not yet been ruled out that Barca could offer him a new contract.

A January exit has been ruled out by his agent, and Lewandowski offered an update while on international duty with Poland.

“I’ll soon be ready to decide which path I want to take and I’ll see what my options are,” he told TV Sport. “I’m calm. I don’t know where I’ll be or what I’ll want to do in a few months. I don’t have to do anything and I’m in no hurry.”

Lewandowski is thought to be keen to continue at Barcelona and spoke about how he loves players with young stars such as Lamine Yamal in Catalunya.

“It really encourages me to know that there are so many young guys over 18 at Barcelona. They give me a real boost of energy,” he added.

“I feel very comfortable among them. I remember when I was a teenager and what I did at their age. I’m older than the parents of some of my teammates. They treat me like a father. It’s funny, but very positive,” 

“Last season was very successful for me. I scored a lot of goals and won several trophies, which confirms that my level of play was very high.

“My career is nearing its end, but while I’m still playing football, I want to make the most of it, not only in sporting terms but also emotionally. I want to enjoy the moment and get the most out of it.”
