Barcelona newcomer Robert Lewandowski accused his previous club, Bayern Munich, of lying.
“Is my departure connected with rumors that Bayern were interested in Haaland? No, this has nothing to do with Erling. If the question is whether the decision was made to leave because of him, no, I didn't see a problem if he joined Bayern.
But some people don't tell me the truth, they say something else. It's always been important for me to be as clear as possible, to stay true, and maybe for some people that was a problem. I saw and felt that maybe now is the time to leave Bayern and join Barcelona.
Everything that happened in the last, maybe a few weeks before I left Bayern, there was a lot of politics in it. The club tried to find an argument why they could sell me to another club, because before it was difficult to explain to the fans. And I had to put up with it, although there was a lot of nonsense about me, a lot of shit, lies. But, in the end, I knew that the fans, even during this period, are still very supportive of me, ”ESPN quotes Lewandowski.
Recall that Lewandowski left Bayern this summer and signed a contract with Barcelona until 2026.
