The new Bayern Munich coach, Julian Nagelsmann, responded calmly to various rumors about the future of star player, Robert Lewandowski. Seeing that Lewandowski is now being linked with a number of elite European clubs, such as Real Madrid to Chelsea, Nagelsmann actually sees it as a natural thing.
As is known, Lewandowski’s name also enlivened the discussion in the 2021 summer transfer market. Because, a number of clubs are reported to have looked at opportunities to recruit him.
Madrid to Chelsea are at the forefront of Lewandowski fan clubs. This interest is certainly not without reason. The Polish striker has indeed managed to show a slick performance in the last few seasons at Bayern Munich.
Last season, he scored 48 goals in 40 appearances in various competitions with Bayern. Lewandowski also played a big role in the team’s success in winning various titles in the 2019-2020 season. At that time, Die Roten – Bayern Munich’s nickname – won the German League, Champions League, DFB Pokal, and many others.
The figure of Lewandowski still impresses many people because he achieved all of this when he was no longer young. Now, he is already 32 years old.
No doubt, a number of clubs who want to make their front lines stronger next season crave Lewandowski’s presence. Nagelsmann himself confirmed that there were many clubs interested in his star player.
However, Nagelsmann is not worried because he believes in Lewandowski’s loyalty. He has also continued to maintain his relationship with Lewandowski since he was tapped to become Bayern’s tactician.
“Rumors about Robert Lewandowski have been around for a long time. I think since he joined Bayern Munich,” Nagelsmann said, as quoted by Goal, Thursday (15/7/2021).
“I think it’s normal for someone to score so many goals that almost every club is interested.”
“I think on the one hand, Robert knows what he has in Munich, what he has in this team. I have spoken to him and messaged him. I don’t really like players discussing their contract situations when there is speculation,” Nagelsmann said.
