Robert Lewandowski fights a mud fight with FC Bayern before he is finally allowed to switch to FC Barcelona. Another top Bundesliga striker, Bayer Leverkusen’s Patrik Schick, disapproves of the world footballer’s behavior. He now announces it loudly.
Leverkusen’s center forward Patrik Schick has criticized the behavior of world footballer Robert Lewandowski before leaving Bayern Munich. “If you look at Robert Lewandowski, who fought to leave the club, then I can say: That’s not something I want to do,” said the 27-year-old in an interview with the “Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger”. The Czech surprisingly extended his contract with the Bundesliga third team until 2027, which runs until 2025, although he probably would have received better offers from larger clubs.
At the same time, Schick praised his discoverer and mentor, former Bayer 04 managing director Rudi Völler: “It definitely had something to do with Rudi Völler that I switched to Leverkusen in 2020. He was one of the reasons that this transfer came about. We had some talks with him, they wanted to sign me a while ago. And in the end he was very happy that I came. I think he did a good job there.”
After the departure of Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland from the Bundesliga, Schick, who scored 24 goals in 27 games last season, is the favorite for the top scorer. However, he does not give her the highest priority: “It’s not my first goal to win the title of top scorer. It wasn’t last season either. The chances may be a little better now, but of course something like that has to happen. If you think about it too much and keep that in mind, it’s not going to happen.”
Lewandowski had fought a mud fight with FC Bayern for weeks about his change request. The world footballer really wanted to go to FC Barcelona, ??but Munich didn’t let him go at first. The soapy victims dragged on until the Pole apparently listlessly completed Bayern’s first training sessions before the Catalans put an offer on the table that the German record champions finally accepted.
