Saga o prelasku Roberta Lewandowskog iz Borussije Dortmund u Bayern napokon bi mogla doći kraju u četvrtak.


I Lewandowski i Bayern su nekoliko puta dali naslutiti da su postigli dogovor i da će posao biti objavljen u januaru, a u tom smjeru ide i nedjeljna objava poljskog televizijskog voditelja Mateusza Boreka na Twitteru. On je, naime, napisao da će 25-godišnji napadač 2. januara službeno objaviti svoj transfer u Bayern.

Jasno je da se Borekove riječi ne mogu smatrati potpuno pouzdanima, no znakovito je da je ovu informaciju objavio na Twitteru netom nakon što je Lewandowski gostovao u njegovoj emisiji Cafe Futbol. U četvrtak bismo, dakle, mogli dobiti službenu potvrdu velikog transfera, ali ionako malo ko sumnja da će Lewandowski sljedeće sezone igrati u dresu aktuelnog evropskog prvaka.
