Bayern expected to turn down new Barcelona offer for Lewandowski - report

Barcelona have reportedly made a new bid for Robert Lewandowski which is set to be turned down by Bayern Munich.

The rumor mill can’t agree on whether this is Barca’s first actual bid or not but the main consensus seems to be that the Catalans have offered €40 million.

Fabrizio Romano reckons Barca’s bid is worth an initial €35m plus €5m in add-ons but the Bavarian giants “are expected to turn that down.” Bild’s Christian Falk has a similar feeling, he says the offer “is still not high enough for Bayern.”

Meanwhile, Bayern Munich’s Hasan Salihamidzic has been talking about Lewandowski again in an interview with Sky in Germany and admitted there had been a meeting in Mallorca last week with the striker and his agent Pini Zahavi.
