Financially, things actually could work out for Bayern Munich to get Erling Haaland.
According to a report from Bild, Bayern Munich could positively spin what would be an awful — yet possible — scenario during the summer transfer window from something club-breaking to something rejuvenating.
Should Lewandowski decide to transfer away from Bavaria, the expected return on the Polish Hitman would be €60 million.
Per Bild, Bayern Munich would then like to take the revenue generated from a sale of Lewandowski and use it to partially fund activating Erling Haaland’s release clause from Borussia Dortmund. Haaland’s release clause is rumored to be €75 million.
With Haaland’s salary expected to be €24 million per season, it would be a wash in terms of what Lewandowski currently draws from the club’s budget.
The Bavarians, however, still seem set on finding a way to extend the contract of Lewandowski even if there are whispers that he would like to take on a new challenge.
“I’ve already said that a few times. I would be happy if Robert ended his career at Bayern. Our sporting management is in constant contact with the players,” Hainer told Bild. “We still have a little time with him. The contract runs until 2023.”
