- Lewandowski will delay his choice until Barcelona’s La Liga title push concludes
Juventus are currently the favourites to sign Robert Lewandowski. The Italian club wants to bring the experienced striker to Serie A next season. However, key talks with his representative have not started.
The Poland international plays for Barcelona at present. He is considering whether to stay in Spain or begin a new chapter elsewhere. His camp is reviewing all possibilities before making a final call.
According to reports, Juventus hold an advantage over AC Milan. The Turin side has built strong links with the player’s agent, Pini Zahavi. Yet, an in-person meeting to discuss terms is still pending.
Milan initially tried to lure the forward to San Siro. They hoped to copy the deal that brought Luka Modric to Italian football. Despite their early efforts, Juventus have now moved ahead in the queue.
The striker sees this move as a life-changing decision. His family wishes to examine every route carefully. Options include renewing his Barcelona contract, joining Chicago Fire in Major League Soccer, or accepting a lucrative offer from the Middle East.
No announcement will come soon. Lewandowski plans to focus on Barcelona’s domestic campaign first. He will only decide his future after the La Liga title race reaches its conclusion.
