The international break has once again become a nightmare for FC Barcelona. After last year’s injuries to Yamal and De Jong, it is now Robert Lewandowski, Dani Olmo and Ferran Torres who return injured.
Lewandowski’s case has sparked anger within the club. Hurt during Poland’s match against Lithuania, he insisted on continuing to play with a bandage, ultimately worsening the injury. The outcome: one month out, and ruled out for El Clásico.
In this tense climate, Lewandowski’s future at Barça looks increasingly uncertain. With his contract ending in June, a renewal is unlikely. According to Sport, Atlético Madrid are closely monitoring the situation.
Diego Simeone dreams of pulling off another “Luis Suárez coup”: signing a free, experienced striker ready to make an immediate impact. At 38, the Polish forward could be that veteran addition — especially if Antoine Griezmann leaves.
PSG: Julián Álvarez Wants to Leave Atlético for Paris
Lewandowski’s possible arrival could trigger another major move: Julián Álvarez. According to PSG Inside Actus, the Argentine forward wants to leave Atlético as early as this winter.
Despite strong numbers (7 goals, 4 assists), Álvarez is reportedly frustrated with Simeone’s playing style and the team’s results. His entourage is clear: “Julian wants Paris in January.”
The problem? Atlético refuse to let him go mid-season. Paris would need to put nearly €100 million on the table. A January transfer seems almost impossible… but the summer of 2026 could explode.
