Polish striker Robert Lewandowski has officially confirmed his departure from FC Barcelona. After four seasons wearing the Blaugrana shirt, the forward has decided to bring his time at the Catalan club to an end through an emotional statement on his social media: “After four years full of challenges and hard work, it is time to move on.”
In his farewell message, Barça’s number 9 says he is leaving with the satisfaction of having fulfilled his duty. “I leave with the feeling of having accomplished my mission. 4 seasons, 3 titles,” the footballer said proudly, recalling the trophies won that helped return the club to where it belongs.
The striker did not want to forget the fans, highlighting the affection he received from day one and assuring that “Catalonia is my place in the world.” He also had words of gratitude for the board: “A special thank you to president Laporta for giving me the opportunity to live the most incredible chapter of my career.”
Lewandowski’s departure, which he closed with a heartfelt “Visca el Barça. Visca Catalunya”, now opens up a major question mark in Barça’s sporting plans. The technical staff will have to look for a reliable replacement in the transfer market to make up for the loss of their main attacking reference point of recent years.
