Lewandowski linked to MLS move as Barcelona face Shakhtar Donetsk in UEFA Champions League clash

Barcelona forward Robert Lewandowski has been linked with a move to MLS in 2024.

Per TUDNUSA, the 35-year-old Polish striker is among the wishlist of ‘many’ MLS sides who are in need of a Designated Player striker this offseason.

Lewandowski, despite his age, would warrant a DP contract from any MLS side, immediately making him one of the highest earners in the league. His deal with Barcelona lasts until June 2026, so any club would have to pay a substantial fee for the Polish striker’s services.

In a September interview with AS, Lewandowski spoke on how he thought he would end up in MLS one day: “Before the coronavirus pandemic”, he said, “the idea of MLS was firmly in my mind. But somehow I changed my mind afterwards. After the chapter at Barcelona, that’s difficult to imagine.”

Barcelona return to action on Tuesday in their Champions League match against Shakhtar Donetsk.
