Barcelona superstar Robert Lewandowski has stepped in to offer some big-brother advice to teenage sensation Lamine Yamal, as the youngster finds himself under a cloud of controversy just weeks after turning 18. The Spain international, hailed as one of the favourites to lift the Ballon d’Or this year, has been battling some PR nightmares off the pitch.
Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski has admitted he is still haunted by his Ballon d’Or disappointment at Bayern Munich. The Poland international was favourite for the 2020 award before it was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and then came second to Lionel Messi in the vote the following year.
Robert Lewandowski has made it clear he is not ready to walk away from Barcelona, turning down approaches from Saudi Arabia and setting his sights firmly on continuing his career in Catalonia. The veteran striker is determined to see out his current deal, and possibly extend it, despite being linked to a lucrative move to the Middle East.
