The future of Robert Lewandowski at FC Barcelona beyond the ongoing season continues to remain unclear.
The 37-year-old veteran striker’s contract with the La Liga champions expires on 30 June 2026, and so far, there has been no indication about what the future holds for him.

Some reports in Spain suggest that Lewandowski is unlikely to continue at Barça, whereas sources in Poland have claimed that he will stay put at the Spotify Camp Nou.
One-year extension to be offered
Amidst all this back and forth, reliable transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has come forward with an update on the situation of Lewandowski.
As per Romano, Barcelona are very much open to the idea of keeping hold of the Poland captain by offering him a one-year contract renewal, but with a reduced salary.
The 37-year-old superstar is one of the highest earners at the club and given their Financial Fair Play situation, renewing him on the same salary builds little sense, especially with him taking up a more secondary role.

As such, the Catalan heavyweights would consider offering him a short-term renewal as long as he is willing to accept lower wages.
No shortage of suitors
Meanwhile, Romano states that Lewandowski is attracting interest from across the globe even as his future at Barcelona remains uncertain.
Indeed, teams from Europe and Saudi Arabia are already in contact with the former Bayern Munich superstar’s camp, as are clubs from Major League Soccer in the USA.
So, the final decision now rests with the Poland captain, who is carefully assessing all his options before taking a call.
