Bayern confirm verbal agreement with Barcelona to sell Lewandowski

Bayern Munich have verbally agreed terms with Barcelona for the sale of superstar striker Robert Lewandowski.

The 33-year-old scored 50 goals last season - the most of any player in Europe's top five leagues - but has since been pushing for a move away from the Allianz Arena.

An agreement between Bayern and Barça was finally announced on Friday, with a total amount of 50 million euros set to allow Lewandowski to leave.

And Bayern posted an update on their official Twitter page on Saturday, featuring a quote from club president Herbert Hainer.

"We have reached a verbal agreement with Barcelona," he said. "It's good to have clarity for all parties.

"Robert is an incredible player, and he has won everything with us. We are extremely grateful to him."

Lewandowski was pictured saying goodbye to his Bayern teammates at their training ground early on Saturday morning.
