February witnessed a bombshell announcement by Kylian Mbappe, who will be departing from PSG at the end of the season. This news undoubtedly left PSG fans heartbroken as they will see their current best player leaving after many successful spells.
On the other hand, jubilation filled the fans of Real Madrid as their long-held pursuit of Mbappe seems to be coming to an end.

Robert Lewandowski speaks on Kylian Mbappe Real Madrid move
The potential transfer of Kylian Mbappe has sparked different reactions from many players, but the one that certainly garnered the spotlight was Robert Lewandowski’s. Recently the Barcelona striker shared his thoughts about Mbappe’s potential transfer to Real Madrid.
In a recent interview, Lewandowski was asked to give his thoughts on the potential transfer of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid. However, when asked, the Barcelona star refrained from making any definite statement but only expressed respect towards the Frenchman, saying it would be a “cool thing” to share the field with him. Kylian Mbappe’s contract ends this summer, and there’s a very high chance that he will be making his dream move to Real Madrid.
Lewandowski, during the interview, said, “I don’t know if he officially moved to Real Madrid, so it’s difficult to comment. Perhaps it is better to wait until the news is officially confirmed.” The Polish player also added, “Knowing Kylian and speaking to him in the past, I know that playing against him in La Liga will be a cool thing.”
Robert Lewandowski is the main man up front for Barcelona. Leading the attack, Lewandowski has scored 19 goals and provided 7 assists in 38 games for Barcelona across all competitions and had already won the Golden Boot last season.
Robert Lewandowski pledges to stay at Barcelona
Robert Lewandowski has been a beast of a player for the Blaugranas since his signing in the summer of 2021. However, the recent financial situation of Barcelona has raised questions over the future of the Barcelona talisman, as the Polishman was linked to a move to Saudi Arabia. Despite these rumors, recent reports suggest that Lewandowski has stayed loyal to Barcelona and has denied rumors of him moving to Saudi Arabia.
In a recent interview, Lewandowski made a revelation that he will be staying at Barcelona for the upcoming season. The Barca talisman said in the interview, “For me everything is clear and I know where I will be next season and it will stay that way. I have said this many times before and nothing has changed here.” He also added, “One day someone writes one thing and the next day it is completely the opposite. There is no point in following it. I don’t read it.”
Following the period of many players moving to the Saudi Pro League, rumors suggested that it was time for the 36-year-old striker to pack his bags. However, he wasn’t the only Barcelona player linked with the Saudi move. Apart from Lewandowski, Ter Stegen was also linked to a move to a Saudi club, as he was given a “very interesting” offer from Al-Ittihad.
With Robert Lewandowski confirming that he will stay next season and Kylian Mbappe’s potential transfer to Real Madrid likely to happen, it would be intriguing to see who will be able to win the Golden Boot in La Liga. So share your thoughts and tell us who you think will emerge as the winner.
