Lewandowski, who had 12 months remaining on his Bayern contract, moved to Barcelona after some disagreements with the German football club.

The disagreement between FC Bayern and Lewandowski arose in connection with a new contract - while the striker was demanding at least a two-year contract extension and a raise, the Munich club’s owners were only willing to offer him a one-year extension.

The 33-year-old has joined the team on their US pre-season tour where he completed his medical.

The club will present their new signing on Wednesday at noon (EDT) in Miami, Spanish media reported.

A golden goose

Lewandowski scored 344 goals for Bayern in 375 appearances.

He helped Bayern to eight Bundesliga titles in the last eight seasons, as well as three German Cups, and has just been crowned the league's top scorer for the fifth season in a row after netting 35 goals in 34 Bundesliga games in 2021/22.
