Barcelona's transfer activity slammed as Robert Lewandowski takes spending past £100m

Julian Nagelsmann has taken aim at Barcelona's summer transfer spending, questioning how the club can afford the likes of Robert Lewandowski.

The Pole made it clear he wanted to quit Bayern Munich this summer and has secured a switch to Barcelona despite their well documented financial issues. The Catalan club have been forced to let Lionel Messi go in the last 12 months due to wage issues, yet they've spent over £100million this summer on new recruits.

Lewandowski completed his move shortly after the Spanish giants secured a £55m swoop to sign Raphinha from Leeds United. They've also added Andreas Christensen and Franck Kessie on free transfers, while tying down Ousmane Dembele to a new deal.
