The future of Polish striker Robert Lewandowski is on the verge of being decided as he has received a concrete offer from Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal. According to Polish media, the player is inclined to accept the offer, which could put an end to speculation about his future.
The offer from the Saudi club is financially irresistible, amounting to €90 million per season for the captain of the Polish national team. Although nothing has been signed yet, Al-Hilal appears to be the most likely destination for the 37-year-old player, who was also linked with Porto.
Lewandowski's departure from Barcelona looks increasingly certain, particularly following the Catalan club's conditions for him to stay. The Catalans would be willing to keep him for another season, but only if he accepts a 50% pay cut. The biggest hurdle to renegotiation has been information that his role in the team would not change, as he would continue to be a substitute, which is unacceptable to the player.
In making his decision, Lewandowski will also consider his future with the Polish national team, from which he does not intend to back away. The striker believes that moving to Saudi Arabia will allow him to better manage his physical condition, with less intense training compared to Barcelona, while still guaranteeing the necessary playing time to stay in top form for national team commitments.
Is Lewandowski making a mistake by leaving Barcelona for such a lucrative offer? Or is this a smart career move that allows him to stay fresh for the national team? What do you think, fans?
