That's why I don't believe the rumors that Bayern are still looking for a striker to replace Lewandowski. Because in my opinion bringing in
Sadio Mane is enough to strengthen Bayern's front line, after all, there is no certainty that Lewandowski will leave Bayern. However,
Bayern still seems to be trying to keep Lewandowski to stay at Bayern for at least one more season until his contract expires. Moreover,
what is being rumored is Ronaldo, it makes no sense to me. After all, Erik ten Hag says Ronaldo is a great player and is in his plans
for next season, so there is no reason for Ronaldo to move to Bayern. I agree that Bayern would not be interested in signing an older player
like Ronaldo, so the rumors that Bayern will buy Ronaldo are just news made up by the media.

I hear rumors, that Lewandowski still can play in Munchen for at least 1 season because the official didn't reduce the price of the transfer. Barcelona can't make deal with that price, even 5 million bonus was added. but I think 50 million euros is enough expensive for a player getting old. If I were Barcelona, I have to wait until the next session after Lewandswki's contract was over and got that player with a free transfer.

Bayern deliberately set a high enough price for Lewandowski if Barcelona wanted to buy Lewandowski this year. That's Bayern's way of making
Barcelona retreat to pursue Lewandowski, because it's very clear that Bayern are not willing to lose Lewandowski. Therefore, two Barcelona offers
were immediately rejected by Bayern, as you said Bayern want the price of 50 million euros and Bayern don't want to lower that price.

The latest news that Barcelona intend to make a third bid for Lewandowski next week, it looks like Barcelona will pay the transfer fee that Bayern
wants, if that's true there is no reason for Bayern to refuse anymore. There has been no news from Lewandowski after expressing his intention
to leave Barcelona, because currently Lewandowski is enjoying his holiday. Even though what you say is true, Lewandowski's price is too high
considering he is 33 years old and his contract expires in one more season. But we have to remember what happened to Mbappe who changed
his mind when his contract expired, so it's much safer if Barcelona buy Lewandowski now.

I think that Lewandowski is still in an excellent shape, a two times world soccer player trophy winner and is still worth a good amount of money. I am not so sure whether Bayern wants to keep him.

I am a bit surprised by the way Lewandowski chose to communicate in public, but I would guess that his advisor tells him exactly what to do in order to reach his personal goal, which is to leave the club. But saying that Bayern doesn't appreciate him (best earning player in the Bundesliga) is a bit exaggerated if you ask me. He really got everything he wanted at all times. Otherwise he couldn't have made it to where he now is, seriously.

I wonder how Nagelsmann thinks about all of that. Apart from that the team would still be unbelievable strong even without Lewandowski. I sincerely hope that the next season will bring us a much closer competition than in the recent past, but I can't get myself to go any further than just express my hope for that.
