– Robert was a very important player for us. Of course we will miss him and his goals. However, we will continue on our way without it. He said goodbye to us, thanking us for the time spent together. I wish him all the best in Barcelona, said defender Lucas Hernandez.
The Pole has been a player for a week. The Spanish club paid 45 million euros for Lewandowski plus five million euros in bonuses. The captain of the Polish national team signed a four-year contract with the new club, which included a compensation clause in the amount of EUR 500 million.
There is an ongoing discussion in the German media as to how Julian Nagelsmann will replace Lewandowski. The Bayern Munich coach himself said that the loss of a Pole does not have to be bad for his team and announced that he was already looking for a new way to play in the offensive.
Hernandez commented on Lewandowski’s departure
– When someone like Lewandowski plays offense, you have to attack the wings often. The way we play will change now. It will be the new Bayern. In the past, with Lewandowski in the line-up, it may have been easier for rivals to prepare for the match against us. Now we will be more unpredictable -.
The former Bayern player and the coach of the German national team, Juergen Klinsmann, had a different opinion. – Nagelsmann, like many coaches of the younger generation, likes to play without the classic nine, betting on false forwards. However, I believe that eventually he will have to find a similar replacement for Lewandowski. Bayern has been playing such strikers for years. Transferring Sadio Mane is not enough. I’m sure they’ll buy a real striker in a few days -.
Hernandez also referred to the issue of replacing Lewandowski. – Mane has everything to achieve great things with us. He is an incredibly modest and nice guy who integrated with us within a few days. We can speak French in the locker room – concluded the defense lawyer.
