Ex-agent: Robert Lewandowski was never first choice for Real Madrid

In an interview with sport1.de, Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski’s former agent Cesary Kucharski, came clean about what was going on behind the scenes when Lewandowski was courting Real Madrid in the summer. Now, it appears that Robert Lewandowski’s interest in a transfer was not reciprocated by the Blancos. “For Real Madrid”, Kucharski revealed, “Robert was never the first choice.” This would be in line with reports from the time when it was said that Florentino Perez contacted Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and categorically denied that there was any contact with the player. Kucharski revealed that money had a role to play in the who fiasco and that Lewandowski’s “attitude to money became a problem”. When asked if he would go on strike to facilitate the move, Kucharski replied: “A strike would do nothing but damage his image in Germany.” “Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and Uli Hoeneß have a lot of experience, they were footballers themselves and can, therefore, understand the perspective and responsibility of the footballer. They understand that footballers are different from those who have to make decisions. “Robert is a professional and likes to play at Bayern.”
