Chelsea and Man City set for Robert Lewandowski transfer battle and Bayern could sell superstar for just £52m


ROBERT LEWANDOWSKI could be ‘tempted’ into a move to Chelsea or Manchester City, according to reports.

The Bayern Munich star is closing in on a number of records in Germany, and has previously hinted that he’ll finish his career in Bavaria.

But, with his contract set to have just two years remaining, the Pole is reportedly considering his options.

According to ESPN, the striker is ‘undecided’ on his future – with City and Chelsea emerging as serious ‘contenders’ to sign him.

The 32-year-old could be available for just £52million, should he decide to leave Allianz Arena.

Chelsea are looking to bring in a focal point upfront, with Erling Haaland and Romelu Lukaku having already been linked.

While City are also in the market for a forward, with Sergio Aguero leaving at the end of the season.

Lewandowski worked with Pep Guardiola for three years at Bayern, with great success.

While Chelsea have looked to target the German market in recent seasons.

Agent Pini Zahavi, 77, is looking to secure a pay rise for one of his most prominent clients.

And the Israeli believes that English clubs would be best-placed to offer Lewandowski significant money.

Zahavi has had strained relations with the German champions’ board in the past.

Former Bayern president Uli Hoeness last year called Zahavi a ‘greedy piranha’, after contract negotiations with another of his clients David Alaba broke down.

Lewandowski, meanwhile, could set a new Bundesliga record this season.

With three games remaining, Bayern’s No9 is four goals short of Gerd Muller’s tally of 40 goals in a single Bundesliga season – a benchmark set in 1972.

And should he decide to stay at Bayern, Lewandowski would have the Muller’s all-time tally of 365 German top-flight strikes in his sights.

The former Borussia Dortmund ace currently has 272 Bundesliga goals.
