Cezary Kucharski, Robert Lewandowski's former agent, has explained that the Bayern Munich striker's desire to play in LaLiga Santander is nothing new and that he is determined to prove that he is better than Karim Benzema.

The forward is a priority for Barcelona in this summer transfer window, although the Bavarians are making it difficult for the Catalan side to make their wish come true.

"He wants to prove that he is better than Benzema, it's another reason [he wants] to go to Barcelona," Kucharski told Radio Ser.

"Lewandowski has no dreams. For him, playing football is a job and he is very professional. Real Madrid and Barcelona are at the same level."

Despite the fact that he has a contract with Bayern Munich until June 2023, his former agent believes that the deal will eventually go through.

"Barcelona and Lewandowski are going to fight for this signing," he said.

"I think he's going to sign for Barcelona, I think it's possible."

United States aim

Kucharski also revealed that after his time in LaLiga Santander, Lewandowski wants to head to MLS in the United States.

"He has to put pressure on Bayern to release him from his contract," he said. "The Bayern officials know that he wanted to go to Spain.

"His plan was Germany, then Spain and to finish his career in the United States," he said.
