Robert Lewandowski is not in the best shape this season. There were even opinions among Spanish journalists that Barcelona should sell him. One of the experts told how long the Pole will play at a high level.
In the previous competition, Robert Lewandowski led Barcelona to the Spanish Championship, winning the title of top scorer. This season the whole team is playing worse, and the weaker play of the Polish striker is causing more and more opinions about him. Some indicate that he will not return to his best form. His age may have some influence on this. Lewandowski is already 35 years old and it is becoming increasingly difficult for him to remain at the top.
“Lewandowski needs to pull himself together”
Jorge D’Alessandro, a former Argentine goalkeeper and now a Spanish football commentator, spoke about the Pole’s character in an interview with WP SportoweFakty. The expert told how long, in his opinion, the 35-year-old football player will remain at a high level. - I think about a year or two. Let’s not forget that Robert is physically amazing. This gift contributes to the fact that his career at the top lasts for a very long time. And, as I said, this may take some time, he emphasized.
It is not yet known which club the top scorer of the previous La Liga season will play for in the future. Continuing to play for FC Barcelona is only possible in one case. – Simply put: Lewandowski needs to pull himself together. Because if he continues to play like he has in recent weeks, it could be very difficult for him to spend two years at Barcelona,” D’Alessandro admitted.
Lewandowski’s competition
At the beginning of January, Vitor Roque arrived at Barcelona. On Thursday, the young Brazilian will be able to make his debut in his new club, because that’s when the Spanish champion will play against Las Palmas (kick-off at 21:30). For now, Roque will be Lewandowski’s replacement, although Catalonia have made no secret of the fact that they have high hopes for him in the future. It is possible that he will replace the captain of the Polish national team in the starting lineup.
Barcelona have currently played 18 matches in the current championship season. She scored 38 points and is currently 10 points behind leader Real Madrid. In the context of the fight for the title, this does not bode well.
