Real Madrid and Robert Lewandowski have reached an agreement in principle for the Bayern goal scorer to be a white player next season. The agreement came after a series of meetings between the new manager of the Polish striker, the Israeli Pini Zahavi, and José Ángel Sánchez, the right hand of President Florentino Pérez. Have been established the basic points of the future contract with Real Madrid that should be for two years with a third extendable, ostensibly improving the record he had in the Bavarian club.
Florentino Perez has decided to tie Robert Lewandowski waiting to see how contacts with Neymar evolve, although they already told the white president, in their recent meeting, that they should return to the initial plan of trying to sign the former Barcelona player in 2019, because this season neither the Paris Saint Germain, especially the Sheikh of Qatar, as MD reported, are willing to do without their star and not for a matter of money or sports, but of a political nature.
Robert Lewandowski had been on Real Madrid's agenda for a long time, but the innumerable meetings he had had with his previous manager, also Polish Cesary Kucharski (he represented him for ten years), had not come to fruition. On the contrary, he renewed his contract with Bayern until June 2021. For that reason, Robert Lewandowski decided to sign Pini Zahavi, to take him out of Munich and take him to a team with aspirations and be able to sign his last big contract. negotiated with Paris Saint Germain, Arsenal and Chelsea, but the player, at 29 was clear that he wanted to play at the Bernabéu.
As a curiosity, Robert Lewandowski was recommended by Jose Mari Bakero, when the current member of the coaching staff of Barça, trained Polish Lech Poznan. It cost then 4.5 million. It was Borussia Dortmund who signed him thanks to the eye of his technical director Michael Zorc.
Real Madrid has opted for Robert Lewandowski because he does not see anything clear about the possibility of taking over the services of Harry Kane, the dream of Florentino Pérez, before the intransigence of the president of Tottenham, Daniel Levy who refuses to transfer his star, more in this new season in which stadium will be premiered. The Pole is more affordable and is a proven scorer.
Neither have wanted to wait to know if he will remain on the bench of Real Madrid, Zinedine Zidane or will another coach arrive. In the case of the French could 'compensate' with the signing of Eden Hazard (Chelsea). Among the substitutes of Zizou has taken advantage Joachim Löw, the current coach of Germany, because Mauricio Pochettino seems determined to remain at Tottenham and fulfill his contract. Massimiliano Allegri is still the 'capped'. In any case, the future of Zidane is directly related to the Champions League and the final success of Real Madrid.
The only doubt raised by the signing of Robert Lewandowski (who would replace Karim Benzema) is that Cristiano Ronaldo now plays practically 'nine' and prefers to continue with the French striker at his side, before the club signs a center forward and scorer as is the Polish Bayern. But Florentino Pérez wants to reinforce the team and is not sentimental. It will be necessary to see what they do with Gareth Bale who is looking for accommodation in the Premier League to lighten the salary and make cash for the many signings that the white president wants to make.
