Bayern Munich CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has stated he expects star forward Robert Lewandowski to stay at the club despite links to Spanish giants Real Madrid.
The Poland international striker has scored an incredible 142 goals in 184 games in all competitions, averaging a goal every 1.29 games.
This season his form has continued to flourish – scoring 32 times in 39 appearances – but that has meant some of Europe’s biggest clubs, including Real Madrid, have been linked with moves to sign the 29-year-old. NaijaBet.com
However, Bayern CEO Rummenigge spoke to Kicker regarding the potential sale of their top-scorer, insisting that he doesn’t think Lewandowski will go anywhere, especially when looking back at previous attempts by other clubs to poach their best players.
“What should motivate us to take a different direction? I always like to remember the year 2008, when we had an amazing offer from Chelsea for Franck Ribery. NaijaBet.com
“From that day on, the whole world of football knew, nobody can buy a Bayern Munich player against the will of Bayern Munich.”
He has also been top-scorer for the Bundesliga for two seasons running and will most likely reproduce this feat come the end of this term, as well as being voted into the German top flight’s Team of the Season every year since his move to Bavaria, three years in a row overall. NaijaBet.com
