Robert Lewandowski has played a crucial role for FC Barcelona in the 2024-25 season, guided by German coach Hansi Flick.
He has scored seven goals in his first seven league games, slightly below the nine goals he scored in his debut season with the club so far. Nonetheless, the goals he has scored this season have produced more points for the team in comparison to two years ago.
This point was emphasized by Diario AS, showing that Lewandowski’s displays on the field are a compelling response to the doubts expressed by former coach Xavi Hernandez.
Reports indicate that Xavi advised president Laporta to separate from the 36-year-old forward, as he deemed him no longer at his peak and unsuitable for Barcelona’s caliber.
Hansi Flick’s arrival has sparked a resurgence in Lewandowski’s performance, given Flick’s history of optimizing his abilities while at Bayern Munich.
