The 35-year-old wanted new challenges before the current season. After ten years, he left Germany and traded Bayern for Barcelona. He was fully aware that he was leaving a well-organized team, destined for trophies, for a team under construction, which would be much more difficult to succeed.
Meanwhile, the Catalan club celebrates the Spanish championship unexpectedly quickly. They secured the title on Sunday, beating Espanyol 4-2 away, with Lewandowski scoring twice. With four rounds to go, the race in La Liga is over.
All Robert Lewandowski’s trophies
Thus, Lewandowski received the 28th team trophy. This number must be impressive. And it all started in 2009, when he won the Polish Cup with Lech Poznań.
Lech Poznan 2008-2010
Lewandowski, a 20-year-old young man at the time, came to Wielkopolska as a very promising striker, but so far unproven at the highest level. The numbers spoke for him, because he came as the top scorer of the then second league (second level). He entered the Premier League with the door. In two seasons, he won everything he could win at home – the Polish Championship, the Polish Cup and the Polish Super Cup. He went to Borussia Dortmund as the top scorer.

Lewandowski’s first stop abroad turned out to be a bull’s-eye. In North Rhine-Westphalia, he met his compatriots Jakub Błaszczykowski and Łukasz Piszczek, but above all the coach Juergen Klopp, who created a perfectly working machine that regularly stood up to the great Bayern, and Lewandowski experienced the first great evenings, thanks to which his name hit the mark for the first time to the farthest corners of the world. He left after four years as a global star, with two German championships, a cup and a super cup.

During his adventure with Borussia, Lewandowski harassed Bayern so regularly that the activists of this giant wanted to have him at home. And they made one of the best transfer moves ever. The eight years spent in Bavaria were an uninterrupted streak of successes for Lewandowski. He won the German championship each year, added three domestic cups and five Super Cups. And most importantly – in 2020, he finally reached for his dream triumph in the Champions League. Then there were also wins in the Club World Cup and the European Super Cup. It was a perfect season, accessible only to a few.

Last summer, the Pole wanted something more. And he chose Barcelona, which had had a poor season and was on the verge of big changes. He was to be the face of the new project, to restore its former glory. And although the first season is not easy, the Pole has already won the Spanish Super Cup, and from Sunday also the championship of this country. He can enjoy it for the 28th time in his career.

And team trophies aren’t everything. The best shooter in the history of the Polish national team was the king of shooters, e.g. league, Bundesliga (seven times), German Cup (three times), Champions League or European and World Championship qualifiers.
He broke the record of the legendary Gerd Mueller in terms of the number of goals in one Bundesliga season (41). Twice he was the FIFA player of the year and once UEFA, he is the top scorer in the history of the Polish national team, and in a moment he may also win the pichichi award for La Liga’s top scorer.
