Robert Lewandowski’s next club: Five options for out-of-contract Barcelona star in 2026
According to reports, Robert Lewandowski is expected to leave Barcelona at the end of the season when his current contract expires.
The 37-year-old has scored 105 goals in 156 appearances for the club since joining in 2022, but isn’t expected to be offered a new contract by the club.
We’ve assessed his current situation and have highlighted five clubs that he could realistically join next season.
Any Saudi Pro League side
Over the summer, it was widely reported that Lewandowski had multiple offers from clubs in Saudi Arabia.
He reportedly turned down offers to earn €100million per season from the likes of Al Hilal and Al-Nassr.
While the striker rejected their advances at the time, the door was left open to discuss a deal later down the line.
With him set to become a free agent at the end of the season, he’ll no doubt be presented with a mammoth offer again to tempt him to the Middle East.
Any MLS club
Back in 2024, a number of MLS sides were keeping tabs on the veteran striker.
His Poland teammate, Karol Swiderski, who used to play for Charlotte FC, has admitted that Lewandowski has asked him about moving to MLS before.
“Yes, he’s asked me sometimes,” Swiderski told reporters a few years ago.
“I’m waiting for this moment, so I hope he will come here, because he’s really a legend, [not only] in Poland but even I think in Europe.
“He’s scored many, many goals, so it would be nice to meet him in MLS.”
AC Milan
If Lewandowski wants to remain in Europe, a move to AC Milan could definitely be on the cards.
The Italian giants have a history of signing players in their late thirties and getting the best out of them – just look at Luka Modric this season.
It’s been well-documented that Milan have been interested in him over the past few months and next summer could be perfect timing for both the player and club.
Atletico Madrid
He could follow in the footsteps of Luis Suarez, who left Barcelona in 2020 to join their La Liga rivals.
It’s been well documented that Julian Alvarez is one of the Lewandowski replacements that Barcelona are exploring. Meaning that Diego Simeone’s side could be in need of a new striker next summer.
The 37-year-old has an excellent track record in La Liga and on a free transfer, could tempt Atletico to make a move.
Chelsea
Prior to his move to Barcelona, Chelsea were one of the clubs most interested in securing the Polish international’s signature.
While it’s very rare for them to sign a player over the age of 30 these days, they could make an exception when it comes to Lewandowski.
It would be great to see him in the Premier League and we can’t help but think that he’d shine in Enzo Maresca’s system, alongside the likes of Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro.

EPL: Fulham must move on from defeat to Manchester City — Iwobi
Alex Iwobi says Fulham must stay positive despite their 5-4 defeat to Manchester City at Craven Cottage on Tuesday.
Marco Silva’s side put up a spirited display in the encounter, and were unlucky not to get at least one point.
Iwobi started the fight back by scoring the second goal for Fulham early in the second half.
The versatile midfielder’s compatriot, Samuel Chukwueze then rose from the bench to score two more goals for the Cottagers.
Manchester City, however, held on to go home with maximum points.
Iwobi stated that they deserved more from the game.
“I feel disappointed because we didn’t get anything out of the fighting spirit that we showed, but I think we have to take the positivity from the game,” Iwobi told the club’s official website.
Fulham will be away to Crystal Palace in their next Premier League game on Sunday.

EPL: Guardiola names team that impresses him everyday
Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola has named the Premier League club that has impressed him so much this season.
The Spaniard said that Enzo Maresca’s side have really impressed him with the improvement they make everyday.
Speaking after Manchester City beat Fulham 5-4 in the Premier League on Tuesday night, Guardiola pointed out that a team must remain consistent to win the title.
Pep Guardiola’s side closed the gap at the top of the Premier League to just two points behind Arsenal with the victory over Fulham, but the Gunners could maintain their five points lead with a win over Brentford on Wednesday night.
“Chelsea impresses me more and more every day with Enzo [Maresca], but it’s long,” he told reporters after the win.
“Premier League is so long, many things will happen. We won six Premier Leagues, four or five when we in December, January or February we were behind.
“The team who wins the Premier League is the team who grows during the months and this is what we try to do. No injuries, it’s so long.
“But at the same time, if we push, we will be better and push ourselves and control the situations better, the emotions and we will see what happens.”

Outrage As ‘Biological Male’ Wins World’s Strongest Woman Event in Texas (Photos)
The 2025 World’s Strongest Woman final has sparked outrage after an alleged transgender athlete won gold.
American Jammie Booker, who is accused of being a biological male, beat Great Britain’s Andrea Thompson to victory at the event in Arlington, Texas.
According to Mail Online, Thompson walked off the podium, appearing to say ‘this is bulls***,’ while Booker celebrated. The Brit has since been crowned the ‘true World’s Strongest Woman’ by her coach and some of her peers.

Rebecca Roberts, a three-time winner of World’s Strongest Woman, has sensationally claimed that no one – not even the organizers – knew about Booker’s background.
Details on the American are not clear, but the publication sighted a YouTube video – uploaded to what appears to be Booker’s YouTube channel in September 2017, with Booker saying: ‘Everyone is dying to tell their own story and I am obviously no exception to that.
‘I’m 21-year-old trans woman with a history of abuse, struggling to stay true to herself while under the rule of her religious parents.’
On Monday night, Roberts posted a picture on Instagram that read ‘Protect Women’s Sports.’ She wrote alongside the picture: ‘I hold no hate toward transgender people. Everyone deserves dignity, respect, and the freedom to live their truth.

But I cannot stay silent about something that threatens the fairness and future of women’s strength sports. Transgender women, people born male, should not be competing in the women’s category.
This isn’t about identity. It isn’t about politics. It’s about the undeniable physical differences that exist in strength-based sports… differences that don’t disappear, and that matter more here than almost anywhere else. Women’s categories were created for a reason, and if we lose that, we lose the foundation of our sport.
‘What happened this weekend wasn’t transparent. None of us knew. Not even the organisers knew. And when fairness is taken by surprise, trust in the sport begins to crack.
‘My message is simple. Trans people belong in sport, but women’s divisions must remain biologically born female-only.
‘I love this sport. I have given my life to it. And I won’t ignore something that could quietly change it forever. Congratulations to @andreathompson_strongwoman… the true World’s Strongest Woman 2025’
