Robert Lewandowski Injured! Bad News About the Pole's Health
The news was reported by the Catalan daily Mundo Deportivo. Robert Lewandowski's health situation is concerning, as it's once again a similar story to what ruled the Pole out of the crucial part of the 2024/25 season.
“His progress will determine his availability,” FC Barcelona said in the context of Lewandowski’s return to action.
The 36-year-old striker was once again included in the list of the 30 best players in the Ballon d'Or plebiscite on Thursday (August 7), after a year's break.
Robert Lewandowski injured! FC Barcelona confirmsThe news about RL9's health has been confirmed by the Spanish champions. It's certainly a major headache for coach Hansi Flick that FC Barcelona's most effective striker is sidelined during pre-season training.
The Gamper Cup match, which Lewandowski will undoubtedly miss, will be played this year between Barca and Italian side Como. Last season's Serie A sensation is led by Cesc Fábregas, a well-known figure in the Catalan capital. The Spaniard is a Barcelona product. The World Cup winner (2010) and two-time European champion (2008 and 2012) is adept at coaching. Fábregas was approached by several bigger clubs after his successful campaign with Como, but ultimately decided to stay with the team, continuing his work on the Italian Peninsula.
Will Lewandowski's injury also rule him out of the potential selection process of Jan Urban, the new coach of the Polish national team? In early September, the Poles will play two crucial matches in the context of their fight for qualification to the 2026 World Cup. However, it's difficult to predict at this point whether the situation will be serious enough to sideline the RL9 for several weeks.
Looking at what happened at the end of last season, such a scenario – unfortunately – is not ruled out.
