Real Madrid want Robert Lewandowski
After Zinedine Zidane's departure, Real Madrid have taken a decision to dump his favourite, Karim Benzema. The club are open to offers for the French striker. Don Balon has claimed that club supremo Florentino Perez has decided to pursue a move for Robert Lewandowski as his replacement.
Lewandowski is on the hunt for a move away from Bayern Munich and has hired Pini Zahavi - the man who helped Neymar leave FC Barcelona - to get his desired move. Real Madrid believe a bid of €80 million would be enough to tempt the Bavarians into selling the 30-year-old.
