Robert Lewandowski has stated that his “story is ended” at Bayern Munich and that he wishes to leave the German champions this summer.
Lewandowski has a year left on his contract, but Bayern sports director Hasan Salihamidzic stated earlier this month that the 33-year-old has expressed a desire to quit the club.
Barcelona has been heavily linked with a deal for Lewandowski.
“One thing is certain today, my story with Bayern is over,” he said.
Speaking on international duty with Poland, he added: “After everything that has happened in recent months, I cannot imagine further good co-operation.
“I realise a transfer will be the best solution for both sides.”
The Polish striker joined the club in 2014 from Borussia Dortmund and has won eight Bundesliga titles and the Champions League in 2020.
He scored 50 goals in 46 games for Bayern this season, and has scored 344 goals in 375 games during his eight-year stay, a total second only to Gerd Muller at the club.
