Lewandowski plays down Chelsea links

Bayern Munich forward Robert Lewandowski has played down rumours that he could leave the club this summer.

According to recent reports, Premier League duo Manchester United and Chelsea are closely monitoring Lewandowski’s situation at the Allianz Arena following claims that the striker is keen to seek pastures new at the end of the season.

However, the Poland international has been quick to laugh off these claims, telling Sky in Germany that he finds the speculation surrounding his future “funny”. He also denied that his recent decision to change agents was irrelevant when it comes to his future in the Bundesliga.

No, it has nothing to do with that. The speculation is funny, but it doesn’t interest me.

Lewandowski has been in prolific form for Bayern over recent seasons and has firmly established himself as one of the world’s most impressive out and out strikers.

Chelsea are well-stocked with strikers now, with Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud available to Antonio Conte. Michy Batshuayi is also set to return to Stamford Bridge in the summer once his loan deal at Borussia Dortmund expires.

However, they have been linked to some forwards of late, indicating that the Blues could look to add another striker to their squad ahead of the 2018/19 season.
