Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski is once again being linked with a lucrative move to the Saudi Pro League ahead of the start of the new La Liga season.

The news comes from Mundo Deportivo and a report that “several Saudi Arabian league clubs are closely monitoring his situation” and have been in touch to ask if he’s willing to move this summer.

Lewandowski has said repeatedly he’s not interested in leaving right now, making a move unlikely, but then again this is Barcelona so you never really know

what might happen.

The Catalans are well aware that Lewandowski is in the final year of his contract, meaning an offer now could bring in some much-needed income.

There’s also a feeling that even though Hansi Flick is still counting on Lewandowski, he will be used more sparingly in the 2025-26 season due to his age.

Any transfer still looks unlikely to happen, but with the Saudi transfer window open until September 23rd, this is a rumor that we may not have heard the last of just yet.
