What happened in the life of Lewandowski 2.0… Shoot to win
The Polish striker left Dortmund back in 2014 for a childish fee of nothing. Since then, the player has established himself as one of the best, if not, the best number 9’s in the German Bundesliga and Europe. He is contract to recent Bundesliga bullies till the summer of 2021.
Lewandowski scored 29 league goals and five Champion League goals, last season. A striker with 29 goals is an asset to any team. With the three years left on the player’s contract, along with his goal-machine antics, he is valued at around £81 million, plus.
If the business is settled after the World Cup, the Polish could do great with Poland and add digits to the already high valuation. This is where we will see who has the deepest pockets and best dealers to prize the deadly goalscorer.

Madrid favourites, with Lewandowski looking for the Spanish move
The highest order challenge Chelsea for the player. A striker is needed by all of the big names mentioned. Two of the three will be under new management, while the third will be looking to patch up an ageing frontline.
Chelsea fall far behind when you consider power, pull, and tournament involvement. Not having Champions League and the club needing a new manager to take over from the outgoing Conte, Chelsea’s rumoured links with the player, might just stay as rumoured links.
Alvaro Morata’s nonexistence in a Chelsea shirt was almost as early as last winter. With him reported to be on the go, Robert’s link to Stamford Bridge makes sense. But it will take a lot in wages and for Sarri’s deal to be sorted as soon as possible.
