Robert Lewandowski to cost Manchester United at least £69million
According to Sky Germany reporter Marc Behrenbeck (h/t The Express), Manchester United now know what they need to do to land Bayern Munich star Robert Lewandowski.
The 32-year-old is arguably the best No.9 on the planet and has been pivotal to a Bayern side that has dominated domestic proceedings over the last decade.
It is no secret that United need a striker and on Lewandowski they would be getting an elite one. Despite his age, he continues to find the back of the net on a consistent basis and still has a few good years left in him.
“Some top clubs are looking for a new striker. Starting with Manchester United.”
The Polish international has been linked with a move away this summer after seven prolific years with Die Roten. Bayern is unwilling to let him go on the cheap and want at least £69million to part with his services.
It is a remarkable amount given Lewandowski’s age. However, it also shows his standing in the sport. With 43 goals and 8 assists in just 37 games this season, the Pole continues to rack up impressive numbers. (h/t Transfermarkt)
Despite currently being out injured, Lewandowski continues to dominate the race for the Bundesliga golden boot. He is currently on 36 goals, miles ahead of both Erling Haaland and Andre Silva on 25 each. The two strikers have also been linked with United in recent months.
