Robert Lewandowski capped off another impressive season with FC Barcelona on a high note, solidifying his reputation as one of Europe’s elite forwards—even at 36 years old. Amid growing speculation about the Polish striker’s future, Lewandowski shared a positive message that should ease the concerns of Barca fans.
Barcelona wrapped up a successful 2024–25 campaign by winning La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup, despite falling short of reaching the UEFA Champions League final. Lewandowski was a consistent standout throughout the season, and he closed it out in style with a brace in the final match against Athletic Bilbao—reaching several milestones comparable to those of club legend Lionel Messi.
After the game, Lewandowski appeared in a message on the club’s official social media channels to thank the fans and hint at what’s next: “Hi Culers, how are you? I’m Robert. I have to say I’m very proud of the team, I’m very proud if what we achieved this season. And I think you’re very happy with what we did on the pitch.”
He ended the message with a confident sign-off, seemingly shutting down any doubts about his immediate future at Camp Nou: “Thank you so much for your support, and see you next season. Thank you, bye bye!”
Lewandowski’s current contract runs through June 2026, but questions about his long-term future in Spain had started to surface. However, with 42 goals and 3 assists in 52 appearances this season—and no noticeable dip in form—the striker’s upbeat message reassures fans that he’s not finished just yet.

Lewandowski to miss June international duty with Poland
Following the conclusion of the club season, Lewandowski was expected to lead the Poland national team into their June international fixtures—a friendly against Moldova and a 2026 UEFA World Cup qualifier versus Finland. However, he announced he will not participate in the upcoming camp, opting for rest instead. In a message posted to Instagram, Lewandowski explained the decision:
“Dear fans, due to the circumstances and the intensity of the club season, the coach and I have jointly decided that I will not take part in the Polish national team’s training camp in June this time. Playing in white and red has always been a dream come true for me, but sometimes the body sends a signal that it needs a temporary break.
“I support the players with all my heart and believe that we have beautiful moments ahead and many goals to achieve. See you soon,” he ended. With international duty behind him for now, Lewandowski will enjoy a longer offseason before reporting back to Barcelona in mid-July for preseason training.
