The announcement comes amidst speculation linking Lewandowski with a move to Premier League giants Liverpool. The Merseyside club were reportedly keen on signing the Polish international, whose contract was set to expire in 2023. However, Bayern Munich have been determined to keep their star player and have fended off interest from Liverpool. The club’s sporting director, Hasan Salihamidzic, expressed his delight at Lewandowski’s contract extension. “Robert is a world-class striker and we are happy that he will continue to play for Bayern Munich,” said Salihamidzic. “He is a key player for us and we want to achieve even more success with him.” Lewandowski, who has scored 238 goals in 275 appearances for Bayern Munich, said he was “proud and happy” to extend his contract. “I have always said that I feel at home at Bayern Munich,” said Lewandowski. “I want to win more titles with this club and I am looking forward to the future.” The extension of Lewandowski’s contract is a major coup for Bayern Munich. The 32-year-old is one of the best strikers in the world and his goalscoring prowess will be crucial to the club’s success in the coming years. Liverpool will be disappointed to have missed out on Lewandowski, but the extension of his contract with Bayern Munich is a reminder of the financial strength of the German giants.
