Robert Lewandowski has joked about suggestions that his split from a longstanding agent and the recruitment of renowned dealmaker Pini Zahavi means a move away from the Bundesliga champions is inevitable.
Asked if Zahavi had been hired to prepare a transfer, Lewandowski told Sky: “No, it has nothing to do with that. The speculation is funny, but it doesn’t interest me.”
Zahavi is also a familiar face across the top echelons of the Premier League, leading to increased speculation that Lewandowski could head to England if he decides to leave Germany.
On Friday, Bayern coach Jupp Heynckes attempted to play down the speculation of a move.
“Lewandowski is allowed to change his agent for whatever reason he wants,” Heynckes said at a news conference.
“This does not mean anything at all at the moment. If I know those responsible at the club properly, Bayern is not a selling club and wants to — and will — hold onto its best players. I cannot imagine that there is a chance this is going to happen.”
