Atletico Madrid and Milan competing for Robert Lewandowski | OneFootball

Robert Lewandowski is expected to depart Barcelona this summer, sparking a high-profile race between Atletico Madrid, Fenerbahce, and Milan for his signature.

According to Niccolo Ceccarini, the veteran striker’s time in Catalonia is nearing its end, though he has yet to make a final decision regarding his next destination. Milan have identified the Polish international as a dream signing to bolster their attacking department, viewing him as the marquee profile needed to lead the line next season.

The Rossoneri face stiff competition from Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid and Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce, both of whom are keen to secure the prolific forward’s services. While Milan’s interest is concrete, the situation remains far from certain as the club evaluates the feasibility of such a high-cost operation. Consequently, while Lewandowski remains the primary ambition, the Italian giants are also keeping tabs on alternative options should the dream move fail to materialize.
