Bayern munich have
threatened to go to fifa if clubs approach robert lewandowski, amid speculation
that manchester united and chelsea have held talks with the striker.
United and chelsea
have both been linked in recent days with a move for lewandowski, with sky
sports claiming the two premier league clubs have spoken to his representatives
over a potential move.
The poland captain
is reported to be unhappy at bayern and his agent said earlier this week that
coach carlo ancelotti offered his client a lack of support in the race to
finish ahead of pierre-emerick aubameyang as last season's top scorer in the
bundesliga.
However, bayern
have issued a statement to sky deutschland saying that lewandowski is not for
sale while warning clubs to stay clear of their player.
The statement read:
"Robert Lewandowski is under contract at Bayern and only recently renewed
his deal until 2021. Bayern Munich waste no thought on a Lewandowski move.
"There are no
talks with other clubs, and there won't be any. If other clubs negotiate with
players who are under long-term contracts, they risk FIFA punishment. The agent
also confirmed to us that he has not held any contract talks."
Lewandowski ended
up missing out on becoming the Bundesliga's top scorer to Aubameyang last
season, and he said earlier this month: "I wasn't completely satisfied
with the way my team helped me. Immediately after the last game, I was angry
and disappointed with my team. That was the feeling I had."
Lewandowski joined
Bayern from rivals Dortmund in 2014 and signed a new contract to keep him at
the club until 2021 in December.
