Barcelona honors Robert Lewandowski as a club legend following four prolific seasons filled with goals and achievements.
Key Takeaways
AISpanish club Barcelona has added former Polish striker Robert Lewandowski to its list of club legends, despite his relatively short four-season spell with the team.
Lewandowski, 37, joined Barcelona in the summer of 2022 from Bayern Munich for around €50 million. During his time at the club, he scored 134 goals in La Liga and added 24 in the UEFA Champions League, making him one of the top 10 scorers in the Catalan club’s history.

Move to Major League Soccer
This summer, Lewandowski moved to Major League Soccer side Chicago Fire on a free transfer after his contract with Barcelona ended. He has so far played two MLS matches, scoring twice for his new club.
Barcelona seeks a replacement
Barcelona is still searching for a successor to Lewandowski in attack, with its attempts so far to sign Argentine striker Julián Álvarez from Atlético Madrid proving unsuccessful.
