The second Bundesliga starts in two days. It starts with the match between Schalke and Hamburger SV. Two clubs that previously played in the first Bundesliga. For Schalke it was even this year. Hamburg is now in its fourth year in the second Bundesliga.

That match will be for sure a classic and awesome start into the second league for both Teams.
I dont know how the performance is already at Schalke and the same about Hamburg.
If Schalke will be not win this game i guess they will be having it hard in the second League.
Hamburg has a bit of an advantage for playing now longer there.

Lewandowski hasn't said anything about the rumours about him going to Chelsea. But I think that it means he doesn't want to leave Bayern. If he had a decrease in his performance, then he would think of leaving and trying new adventures. AFAIK, he achieved everything he can with Bayern so far. He can still look for new adventures. But it looks like it's not time.

I believe Lewandowski's silence over a move is due to the fact that he is open to a move away from Bayern.Every one knows that English premier league is a very competitive league,and therefore,every player wants to test playing there.He might be open to move to Chelsea I guess.

I would be happy if Lewandowski joins the Chelsea team. Lewandowski is a very talented player. Chelsea have won the Champions League this season, although they have no experienced striker in their squad. If there was an experienced striker in the team, they could also compete fiercely to win the Premier League title.

I think players like Lewandowski are always open for offers from other clubs, but the fact that he is silent now is something that has become pretty common in the way how players communicate about their future career. They want to put their clubs under pressure and leverage their own achievements from last season. He scored this crazy amount of goals and now doesn't say a word. The goal is to squeeze out another 5 million from Bayern Munich even though he already makes 20 million a year from his contract with Bayern only. Advertising contracts on top of  course.

There have been just rumours like Robert Lewandowski would be signed by Chelsea or Manchester City. And it is said that a €50m offer will be made by Chelsea. But I think that this kind of an offer is not good enough for a very deadly striker like Lewandowski. His market value is even €60m now. And if I were Bayern Munich's manager, I wouldn't let him go unless getting at least an €100m offer. Lewandowski really deserves the best of the offers. When you have him at your team, you start the games 1-0 ahead. Therefore, I think that Bayern will keep him in the new season also.

Wow €100m you think is a fair price ? Robert Lewandowski is currently 32 years old of course, age will be a factor in considering the selling price
I'm not sure €100m is a fair price, €50-60m is a fair price. Usually a player can play a maximum before reaching 35 years old

To be honest, I'm not sure about what price would be really fair for him. I gave it as an example. I meant that Bayern wouldn't sell him unless they get an offer including a great deal of money. He is 32 years old but still scoring so many goals. There are not many players at this age who can do that. But who knows, maybe e.g. Chelsea will sign him for a price around €50-60m this summer.

If I'm not mistaken Chelsea wanted to buy Haaland. But maybe Lewandoski could be an alternative because Haaland was not released. He could be a good option because he is still productive, in fact he scored 48 goals in 40 appearances. Besides that he needs a new challenge because he already has many titles with munich. Chelsea will also be lucky he will get a big income from the jersey.

let's be honest - R. Lewandowski has already won every title there is to win at national and international level with bayern munich. what's more, last season he even equaled Gerd Müller's 40-year-old record for goals scored in the bundesliga, beating it by one more goal.
it's time to assert himself in another top league, and i only see england or spain (every internationally big player wants to become a regular player at real madrid at some point) as the only options.

the transfer period is rollin...

The weird thing is, even though he is a player who broke the goal scoring record of Bundesliga history last year, he is still 32 years old so I am not sure if Bayern is really worried about him leaving at all. He provided what he could provide and from now on he will not be providing as much as 50 million euro, he is old enough that they could sell him and get someone younger.

I keep saying that they should be checking out Haaland, Bayern is a world class level team and Haaland could be the best striker of his generation, nobody around his age is as good as him in that regard, which means Bayern could literally turn this situation into 10 years more domination if they are smart enough.

On the other hand Lewandowski is a good player and all but moving away from the club he knows so well into a new club to make sure he could keep on scoring will be hard for him, his retiring time is coming up very fast, he has maximum of 5 years and only 2-3 years of that will be efficient as well if you ask me.

Real Madrid would also make use of him really well. They have only Benzema and they'd be willing to sign a top striker like Lewandowski. He is much more cheaper than Haaland and Mbappe now. But I don't know. We still have no idea whether he's thinking a move to another club this summer.

I 100% share your opinion and I think Lewandowski won't repeat that level he delivered last season. He is a great striker, but as you say if Bayern could get 50 million for him and maybe pay 150 million for Haaland it would be the absolute right move. I would love to see Haaland start a new era for Bayern Munich. But there is another issue: what is the chance that Dortmund will sell Haaland to its strongest competitor? I know you will now say money is everything, but I am quite sure that that consideration also plays a role for Dortmund. They know how painful it was to sell Lewandowski etc. to Bayern, but will they do the same with Haaland? I don't know, I don't think so.

Just from a preference point of view, I would be happy to see Haaland go to Bayern!

...
In fact FIFA is considering more changes in football. I heard talks about 2 half x 30 minutes, stopping the timing when the game is interrupted, unlimited substitutions, throwing ball with foot instead of throw-in, 5 minutes suspension after yellow card...
Revolution.

but that would be the biggest bullshit i have ever read...
there are also rumors that the game ball will soon no longer be round but square...

that's right about the ball. and the players are to play with Corona protective masks until December 2021.
the playing time will also be changed. 4 x 20 minutes and in between 5 minutes break to exchange masks, to drink and to pee.
that will be very funny football games. 

Lmao boys, I just reported what I read in news
Well I didn't follow honestly that thing since it isn't official but I saw a twitter about FIFA denying to impose these changes. Personally, I doubt there is rumors without a context, some of them might think about that or expressed these suggestions somewhere. We will see in the future if they will adopt some of these "rules".

[Wawa2013]

Dortmund know Haaland is being wanted by a lot of big clubs, so Dortmund would want a very high price. Sometimes Dortmund often bluffing, by saying the star player is not for sale, but if the offer is big they will definitely agree. Moreover, Dortmund knows that selling Haaland next season the price will fall.

If they can sell Sancho, they will sell Haaland. In history, Dortmund sell many stars: Goetze, Lewandowski, Hummels, Aubameyang. Haaland will not be an exception and he is not a home-grown player of Dortmund. They don't have to keep him in the club and won't face with pressure from fans to keep Haaland.

Haaland is talented but he is another player who just comes and goes.

If Chelsea dared to bid Haaland at a higher price than the last bid, there is a possibility Dortmund accept the offer.

Maybe in the next summer, when Dortmund find another player to replace Haaland. One year for their scouts to search for replacement over the world. Delay one more season like what they did with Sancho and Manchester United. If Chelseas won't give up, I think Dortmund will sell Haaland to Chelsea.

But it looks like Chelsea doesn't want to raise its offer anymore, and now starting to focus on signing Lewandowski. But Bayern aren't stupid either, won't just
let Lewandowski go. Moreover Lewandowski's contribution is very large for Bayern. It is likely that Chelsea will find it difficult to sign Lewandowski,
because Bayern will charge a high price if Chelsea are serious about signing Lewandowski.

Lewandowski is in his thirties and Bayern Munich will sell him if he want to go and if the club for good replacements for Lewy. What if Lewy moves to Chelsea and Haaland moves to Bayern?

It's interesting to see the history of transfers made by Dortmund, because as you said Dortmund have often sold their star players. And it looks like it
could happen to Haaland, actually Dortmund just want a high price to be willing to let Haaland. Because Dortmund know Chelsea really need a striker
and Chelsea have the money, that's why Dortmund continue to reject the offer given by Chelsea. In order to get closer to the close of the transfer
market, Chelsea are willing to raise the bid Dortmund want. Dortmund have good scouts, so it shouldn't be a problem to find a replacement for
Haaland. Dortmund always find talented players, and managed to sell at a high price.

For Lewandowski, I admit that he is not young anymore for a striker, but looking at his performances with Bayern, I believe Lewandowski is still
productive for another 2-3 years. So Chelsea are very interested in buying Lewandowski. There is a possibility that if Lewandowski moving to Chelsea,
then Bayern will go after Haaland, but Bayern will buy it next year waiting for the price to drop.

Real Madrid do not have the financial capacity to bring in players like Mbappe and Haaland. Lewandowski is a good choice at the moment. But he will not be able to maintain his good performance for too long. On the other hand, Real Madrid's main striker Benzema is 33 years old. He has done well this season, but it doesn't look like he will be able to play next season without injury.

They can borrow money from banks and buy Haaland or Mbappe but doing such borrow, this time, will put the club into risk of bankruptcy that is not what Florentino Perez want to do.

Lewandowski is in very last years of his contract with Bayern Munich so Real Madrid will save a lot of transfer fee if they make an offer to Bayern and Lewandowski. However, Lewy is the highest paid player in Bayern Munich and if he agrees to join Real Madrid, he would request a high salary too. Will Real Madrid accept too high salary for player is in thirties like Lewy? I don't Perez will do this.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Many people are wondering whether Lewandowski will leave Bayern this summer. It seems like Chelsea are the most serious team about signing him. They should be prepared to sacrifice at least €50m for him. But I feel like he won't be leaving now.

First of all, Bayern is a club that not lets their top players go to clubs that will compete for the Champions League Cup. Secondly, Real Madrid's policy is the search for young and talented players who can reveal themselves in Real, and not buying players who are over 30. Although Lewandowski's age is 32, this is not so much, with a strong desire for 5 seasons he will play without problems.

I am also pretty sure that won't leave the club this summer even if they offer 50M€ now. The reason is quite simple, bayern would never let one of the best strikers in the world go before they have a proper replacement for him and i doubt that they have that for the next season because there are hardly any players out there, that could replace lewandowski without a significant loss of quality. Maybe Haaland or Lukaku. From these two players i would prefer Lukaku to be honest. He is 28 years old now and he has proven that he can perform in every league that he was so far. Yes the statistics of Haaland are incredible but with such young players you can never be sure if they can really keep this level for a long time, so Haaland would be a much bigger risk in my opinion and more expensive.

Once the Corona virus situation is normal, the financial crisis of all clubs will be solved. Barcelona has taken a loan from the bank. Even if Real Madrid take out a loan, I don't think they will have too many problems in the future. Moreover, I have enough doubts about whether Real Madrid is now ready to pay Lewandowski's high salary.

Bayern Munich wont probobly even consider letting go of Lewandowski who is in his life form ,just him alone scored 40+ in bundesliga last season.There is no reason for selling him plus to sell him only for 50m that is really low.Lewandowski will probobly break even more records this season if he dosent get injured.
