At the time of writing, he&#8217;s bagged 343 goals across 374 matches in all competitions, subsequently winning one European Golden Shoe and five Kicker-Torj\u00e4gerkanone, which is given to the Bundesliga&#8217;s top scorer.<\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [sky-bet-welcome-offer] does not exist -->\n<p>It&#8217;s likely he&#8217;ll join one of Europe&#8217;s other super clubs with Spain a probable destination.

Lewandowski is able to complement either and head coach Xavi has no issue signing anyone who is entering the latter stages of their playing career.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__gutter\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__gutter__right\" role=\"presentation\" data-qa=\"message_content\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\">\n<div class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\" data-qa=\"message-text\">\n<div class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\" data-qa=\"block-kit-renderer\">\n<div class=\"p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper--first\">\n<div class=\"p-rich_text_block\" dir=\"auto\">\n<div class=\"p-rich_text_section\"><!-- Shortcode [lewandowski-next-club-odds] does not exist --><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;When it comes to signing, age doesn&#8217;t concern me\u2026 we signed Dani Alves when he was 38,&#8221; head coach Xavi told reporters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Players take care of themselves, they&#8217;re more professional.
