"However, in a fresh development, ESPN's Moi Llorens reports that Barcelona are now considering the prospect of offering Lewandowski a new contract. Indeed, the Blaugrana are open to the idea of extending the veteran superstar's stay at the Spotify Camp Nou beyond the ongoing season, but only if he accepts reduced wages. As per the report, Barcelona manager Hansi Flick is very pleased with Lewandowski's commitment, professionalism, and performances this season."
"It is why the club are now considering extending his stay at least until 2027, as they believe he can still have an important role in the locker room. The Catalans' main objective remains to sign a new striker that can compete with Ferran Torres for the starting spot. However, they are no longer averse to the idea of keeping Lewandowski around for another year at least, as long as he is accepting of a secondary role along with a lowered salary."
"By reducing his wages, Barcelona will be able to free up space for new arrivals in the summer, with a new striker and a centre-back on the club's agenda. There have been no negotiations with Lewandowski or his camp so far, but Barça director Deco and manager Flick intend to speak to him sooner rather than later to resolve the matter."
Robert Lewandowski is 37 and his contract expires on 30 June. Barcelona are open to offering him a new contract only if he accepts reduced wages and a secondary role. Manager Hansi Flick values Lewandowski's commitment, professionalism, and performances and believes he can play an important locker-room role through at least 2027. The club still aims to sign a new striker to compete with Ferran Torres and plans to add a centre-back. Wage reductions would free space for summer arrivals. No negotiations have taken place yet, but Deco and Flick intend to speak to Lewandowski soon.
