Bayern Munich striker\u00a0Robert Lewandowski has lamented the club’s lack of signings this summer and has now urged the Bavarian board to recruit swiftly.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Bundesliga champions have thus far signed four new players but are yet to find replacements for wing duo\u00a0Arjen Robben and\u00a0Franck Ribery.<\/p>\n

Bayern’s business so far: Five key things to know…<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • So far, Bayern have spent \u00a3103m on a\u00a0quartet of new recruits.<\/li>\n
  • These include Lucas Hernandez from Atletico Madrid and\u00a0Benjamin Pavard from\u00a0Stuttgart.<\/li>\n
  • The likes of\u00a0Robben,\u00a0Ribery,\u00a0Mats Hummels,\u00a0Rafinha and\u00a0James Rodriguez have all left this summer.<\/li>\n
  • Lewandowski has urged the club’s hierarchy to make substantial inroads in the market.<\/li>\n
  • Bayern have been heavily linked with Leroy Sane but\u00a0Lewandowski has called for even more than him.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Niko Kovac has been exceptionally vocal about his aspirations to prise\u00a0Leroy Sane away from Manchester City but, even if a move materialises,\u00a0Lewandowski believes further signings are absolutely necessary.<\/p>\n

    “I think we need three new players,” he told\u00a0Bild<\/a>.<\/em> “We lost three players in attack with Franck Ribery, Arjen Robben and James, and so far we have not had a [proven] new signing in that area.<\/p>\n

    “We need another attacking winger – even if Sane comes. Perhaps a No.6\u00a0or a central attacker.”<\/p>\n
