The Catalan club have been linked with a summer move for the Poland star

Bayern Munich are "relaxed" about the rumours surrounding Robert Lewandowski's future. The German club, for now, have not been informed that the Polish striker does not want to extend his contract, which expires in 2023, despite recent reports placing him at FC Barcelona, who want to sign a star striker.

"I am not in the least bit worried about these situations," Bayern's general director Oliver Kahn said when asked about Lewandowski, Thomas Müller and Manuel Neuer., who are all out of contract next summer. "In fact, I am really relaxed. Voices from outside don't pressure us."

Former goalkeeper Kahn, in comments to Münchner Merkur, added that "as long as talks go on, I am calm. We won't allow any external pressure."

Bayern are a different club in many senses and have shown in the past they won't enter auctions. Without going any further, you just have to look at David Alaba, who has the same agent as Lewandowski, Pini Zahavi, and his free transfer to Real Madrid last year.
