Bayern Munich are in danger of losing star striker Robert Lewandowski. The Polish forward is reportedly angry at a lack of support shown by his team-mates and coach in the final day of the season.
The 28-year-old could have finished the season as top-scorer, but was beaten by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, something Lewandowski holds him team responsible for.
As a result, the former BVB forward has been linked with a Premier League move. Two English clubs are leading the race for Lewandowski: Chelsea and Man United.
According to the Mirror, Chelsea are favorites to land the Bayern ace. The Bundesliga hitman reportedly favors a move to the English capital and could thus replace the outgoing Diego Costa.
The Blues also plan on using the Lewandowski links as leverage in their Romelu Lukaku chase. Antonio Conte favors the Everton star, but the Toffees are holding him ransom at a high transfer fee.
The Red Devils are also on the hunt for a world-class attacker. With Zlatan Ibrahimovic having been released, Mourinho’s on the lookout for a deadly finisher.
Sky Sports pundit Guillem Balague further fueled rumors of Lewandowski’s Old Trafford switch by claiming the 20-time Premier League champions chatted with his agent on Tuesday.
