‘A contract is a contract!’: Bayern president slams Lewandowski for going public about wanting to leave
“We have always said that Robert Lewandowski has a contract with Bayern until June 30, 2023. And a contract is a contract!” Bayern president Herbert Hainer said to Bild.
“Where are we going if a player can terminate a contract early when we as a club would have to pay him in full until the last day of the agreement? That’s not right, it can’t be like that.
“I’m a bit surprised that Robert decided to go public, I wouldn’t have done it if I were him, Heiner added. “He’s been with Bayern for a long time, he’s won a lot of titles with us.
“I think he knows very well what he has at Bayern, that is, a club that treats its players very well, that does everything it can to make them perform at their best.”
Bayern Munich still intend to keep Robert Lewandowski despite the Pole’s well-known desire to leave the club this summer.
Barcelona are understood to be Lewandowski’s preferred option, although other clubs are surely monitoring the situation around one of the best players in the world.
