Germany fumes with Lewandowski

The situation

The name of Robert Lewandowski continues to take center stage. His desire to put an end to his adventure at Bayern Munich this summer is already well known and the Bundesliga champion is already beginning to resign himself and assume that his departure is a more than real possibility . However, that does not mean that the ways he has used to make it known that he wants to leave have not been loved at all in Germany. Above all, of course, at Bayern. It all started with some statements that he made with the Polish National Team in which he expressed the following: “let’s see what we can do in the next two weeks, what I am clear about is that I don’t want to continue ”. Although he tried to smooth it over days later by claiming that “he respected the institution,” the damage had already been done. And the reactions to his words did not take long to emerge throughout the Teutonic country. Pitt Gottschalk, editor-in-chief of the German news program Sport1 , showed no mercy to Lewandowski: “He is dragging his years of success at Bayern through the mud and making fun of his fans. He did not deserve Gerd Müller’s legacy. It should come as no surprise that his attempts to blackmail Bayern are interpreted as damaging to the club. He doesn’t care that the Bayern fans want to chase him to hell.” Bild , for its part, also dropped this headline: “Stay strong, Bayern!”, referring to FIFA article 17. Said article stipulates that any player over 28 years of age can terminate his current contract in exchange for paying financial compensation equivalent to the salary remaining to be received at that time. And it is one of the main assets that, at this time, Lewandowsi has to force him out. 

The details

In any case, everything seems to indicate that the departure of the Polish striker from Bayern is not going to happen immediately and that the decision about his future is going to take a long time. However, the affront to the fans of the Bavarian team seems irreparable.
