Robert Lewandowski has said goodbye to FC Barcelona after four legendary seasons in an emotional message.
The 37-year-old Polish striker will leave FC Barcelona as a free agent when his contract expires after the 2025-2026 season, after 119 goals, 24 assists and 190 appearances.
On Instagram, Lewandowski shared an emotional farewell message: “After four years full of challenges and hard work, it’s time to move on. I leave with the feeling that the mission is complete. Four seasons, three championships. I will never forget the love I received from the fans from my very first days.”
“Catalonia is my place on earth. Thank you to everyone I have met along the way during these beautiful four years.”
While thanking the fans and President Laporta, he wrote: “A special thanks to President Laporta for giving me the opportunity to live the most incredible chapter of my career. Barca is back where it belongs. Visca el Barca. Visca Catalunya,” he added.
Lewandowski joined Barcelona from Bayern Munich in 2022 and quickly became a key figure in the club’s rebuilding project. He helped the club win three La Liga titles, one Copa del Rey and three Spanish Super Cups.
Barcelona also paid him a stylish tribute in a post on X, with the caption: “Came as a star. Leaves as a legend.”
“Thank you, Robert Lewandowski, for every goal, every fight and every magical moment wearing these colors. Culer forever.”
His farewell message also took the internet by storm. The fans started handing out heartwarming messages and wishes.
One user wrote: “You are a legend, not just because of what you won, you are a legend because you gave us time. Forever grateful that you chose Barcelona.”
Another commented: “You came to this club when no one wanted to, scored 120 goals, won 7 trophies and completely changed this team. You are a Barca legend. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING LEWY.”
The third said, “I will never forget you, Lewa.”
Messages such as: “Thank you for everything GOAT! It was a pleasure to see you score this beauty”, and “Thank you Lewi. For everything you have done for Catalonia. We will never forget it”, were also tributes to the striker.
