In 2014, Lewandowski completed a shocking move to Dortmund's arch-rivals Bayern Munich on a free transfer
In the summer of 2013, Dortmund turned down Bayern Munich's offer for Lewandowski despite the fact that he had only one year remaining on his contract. Thus, the prolific striker joined the Bavarian side one year later as a free agent.

Nevertheless, his move to Dortmund's fierce rival did not seem to affect him. Up until today, the exceptional striker has featured in 157 games for Bayern, scoring 157 times. So far, he has won the Bundesliga title in every season as a Bayern player. He was named the Bundesliga Player of the Year in 2017 and he was the league's top scorer in the 2015-2016 and 2017-2018 seasons.
Since he joined Bayern, Lewandowski has featured twice in the UEFA Champions League Squad of the Season and he is considered as one of the best, most completed strikers of his generation.

About the author
Bill Papargyriou
I am a graduate of English Language and Literature of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and I am currently completing my MA studies in Modern Journalism. I am a huge fan of European Football, especially Calcio.
As far as my work experience is concerned, I was a senior writer and one of the founding members of a Greek website called "sportsdaily.gr". This website was devoted to European football and especially news about the greatest European clubs. I was in fact solely responsible for Serie A. As a result, in the nearly 2 years of the website running live, I had written over 2,000 pieces of match analysis, match previews as well as news in general.
Lastly, I have been working as a sports journalist for "Yellow Radio 92,8", a radio station based in Thessaloniki, Greece which deals with Aris Thessaloniki FC, one of the greatest and historic clubs in Greece. As part of my role, I conduct research on Aris' next opponents reviewing their strengths and weaknesses.
