La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Juventus is seriously pursuing Barcelona star Robert Lewandowski this summer.
The Polish international’s contract with Barcelona expires in the summer of 2026, and it seems likely he will leave the Catalan club, which has already begun searching for a younger striker to replace him at Camp Nou.
Juventus scouts attended the Poland-Albania match
According to the report, a Juventus representative was present in the stands at the PGE Narodowy Stadium on Thursday evening to watch the World Cup playoff semi-final between Poland and Albania.
Poland won 2-1, securing a place against Sweden next Tuesday, thanks to a 1-1 equalizer from the veteran striker, born in 1988.
This mission aims to strengthen contacts and build relationships, pending clarification of the aspirations and objectives of both parties. Juventus is among those seeking experienced and charismatic players.

Juventus and its new project with Spalletti
Juventus is working to bring in top-class reinforcements to meet coach Luciano Spalletti’s demands and provide him with a world-class striker, perhaps to play alongside Vlahovic, with whom negotiations are ongoing regarding a contract extension that expires next June.
This is also to overcome the disappointments caused by the duo Jonathan David and Luis Openda, the club’s two most prominent investments in the attack last summer, who have fallen down the pecking order under Spalletti.
The possibility of Kolo Moine (currently on loan at Tottenham and owned by Paris Saint-Germain) returning remains open, along with the possibility of a swap deal involving the transfer fee for David, which is widely expected next summer.
Spalletti believes Juventus needs to start next season with two reliable attacking options, especially as the club aims to secure a Champions League spot to make it more attractive to players like Lewandowski.

Lewandowski hasn’t made his decision yet
The coming weeks will be crucial in understanding Lewandowski’s intentions. He has yet to decide on his future and whether he will stay with Barcelona, โโmove to another club, or retire.

The former Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich player, who scored 16 goals in a season where he often started as a substitute for Ferran Torres, hasn’t ruled out renewing his contract with the Blaugrana for another season. However, he is also attracting interest from Major League Soccer.
In addition to Juventus, Lewandowski has also been inquired about by AC Milan, another Serie A club looking for a new striker and experienced reinforcements similar to Modric’s successful move.
