"I'm not afraid of ending my career because I'm starting to prepare for it, to prepare things I can do after football,"
"Football is a very important part of my life, but it's not my whole life, especially now. When I was young, I didn't think about this because all I had in my head was football, football, and football, but now I know I'm very close to finishing my career, I don't know, in one, two, three years... maybe four, I don't know, but I'm not under any pressure."
"If one day I listen to my body and feel that something has changed, then I will be ready to end my career."
Robert Lewandowski is starting to prepare for life after football as his Barcelona contract expires at the end of the season and a new deal is not expected. The 37-year-old faces an uncertain short-term future amid reported interest from MLS clubs. He has begun arranging activities and options beyond playing and accepts that retirement could come within one to four years depending on how his body feels. Lewandowski emphasizes that football remains important but not his whole life anymore. He will join Barcelona for the Spanish Super Cup, where he has five goals and two assists in six tournament appearances.
