Polish striker Robert Lewandowski's performance is declining this season, although he still has 8 goals to become the team's top scorer, but his goal scoring output and tactical role have been questioned. It is reported that there is a salary increase clause in the contract of "Robert", and his salary will be increased by 5.2 million pounds (about 52 million Hong Kong dollars) next year. Barcelona is studying to prevent the clause from coming into effect, so there is a good chance to sell this veteran early.
"The Polish striker will join Bayern Munich in the summer of 2022. Due to Barcelona's financial constraints, the Polish striker has signed a 3+1 year contract with an annual incremental increase in salary, which was £17.3 million (around HK$173 million) last season, and has been increased to £22.5 million (around HK$225 million) this season, and will be increased by another £5.2 million in the third year of his contract starting next season.
According to Spanish newspaper Daily Sport, Barcelona coach Xavi is not satisfied with the defensive efficiency of "Robert". In the last league win against Emilia, Xavi had an argument with "Robert" during the half time. According to the report, Barcelona don't want to keep their overpaid and underused player, and are planning to sell the 35-year old "Robbo" before the start of the labor clause.
