Bayern Munich issue Robert Lewandowski update amid Barcelona and Chelsea transfer rumours

Bayern Munich CEO Oliver Kahn has admitted he can see the positives regarding the uncertainty over Robert Lewandowski's future at the club. Chelsea have been linked with a surprise move for the Poland international in recent months.

The 33-year-old, who has scored 47 goals in 42 games for Bayern in all competitions this term, sees his contract at the Allianz Arena expire in the summer of 2023. Barcelona are the overwhelming favourites to land Lewandowski's services amid uncertainty over his stay in Munich.

However, Chelsea have also been linked. If the Blues do sell Romelu Lukaku in the summer, then Lewandowski could be looked at as a short-term replacement for the Belgian. Bayern CEO and former goalkeeper Kahn, though, has reiterated the club's stance on the prolific striker, insisting they want the striker to stay for as long as possible.
