"FC Barcelona are still waiting for Robert Lewandowski's final response to the club's offer of a one-year contract extension with a reduced salary. The Polish striker's agent, Pini Zahavi, is currently in the Catalan capital as discussions continue and the player is weighing up the various proposals now on the table."
"Now, though, according to reports in Portugal, as relayed by SPORT, FC Porto are prepared to offer Lewandowski a one-year contract to replace former Barcelona forward Luuk de Jong. The Portuguese club have already begun working behind the scenes to convince the 37-year-old striker. Porto are hoping to unite Lewandowski with one of Poland's brightest young talents, winger Oskar Pietuszewski, who is regarded as one of the country's great hopes for the future."
"Porto's squad also already includes Polish internationals Jan Bednarek and Jakub Kiwior, both of whom are said to be encouraging the veteran to join the club and become the team's undisputed first-choice striker for the season ahead. Financially, Porto's proposal would reportedly be below some of the other offers available to him, but the project would offer him the chance to play alongside several compatriots while competing in the Champions League at the highest possible level."
"Lewandowski is still considering Barcelona's reduced renewal proposal, while AC Milan and Juventus also remain interested in bringing him to Serie A. Even so, the offer that appears most attractive from both a sporting and financial perspective could be the one from Chicago Fire, who are keen to make him the marquee star of their MLS franchise. Clubs from Saudi Arabia have also made enquiries and continue pushing hard for his signature."
