The economic situation of FC Barcelona does not allow the club to continue handing out extravagant salaries. However, there are certain deals that simply must include grand financial proposals for them to become a reality. While most contracts are sustainable at Barcelona, certain ones need a new look.

One such contract belongs to Polish striker Robert Lewandowski. Originally acquired in the summer of 2022, the former Bayern Munich striker agreed to Barça’s lowered economic proposal in exchange for an ascending salary.

Now, entering his third year as a Barcelona player, Lewandowski’s salary will reach its highest point. According to SPORT, however, Barcelona intend to do something about it. Specifically, the Blaugrana entity hopes to adjust it with their Polish ace.

While the player is no longer at his best level, as showcased by his goalscoring inefficiency this season, he hopes to continue at Barcelona. His physical status is still at an elite level, and both him and his agent assure the Catalans that his desire is to continue wearing the Blaugrana outfit.

However, an agreement on a financial level must be reached for that, as per the club. Barcelona continue to retain their faith in their star striker, and they believe that he will finish the season strong. He is known for ending seasons with a solid goal tally, and the Catalan club is counting on that to happen.

Even as he continues to underperform from his usual high standards, Barcelona are willing to continue with him. Despite all the rumors in the news, the club has not communicated any form of doubt in his abilities.

However, he will have to share his position with Vitor Roque. The Brazilian striker will arrive and be available for Barcelona in January. Regardless of Roque’s incorporation, Barça simultaneously maintain faith in the abilities of their Polish ace.

While Saudi Arabia continues knocking with extreme economic proposals, Lewandowski remains undeterred. For now, his goal remains to succeed at Barcelona and complete his current contract’s duration.
