Poland striker Robert Lewandowski said on Monday his story with Bayern Munich was over and he could not imagine staying on with the German champions.
"One thing is certain today - my story with Bayern is over. After everything that has happened in recent months, I cannot imagine further good cooperation," Lewandowski said during a news conference on international duty.
"I realize a transfer will be the best solution for both sides," the striker added.
Bayern sports director Hasan Salihamidzic said earlier this month that Lewandowski informed the club's boss that he wanted to leave, confirming reports the Bundesliga's second-highest all-time scorer could be on his way out despite having a contract until 2023.
"I believe that Bayern will not stop me just because it can. I think that's all I can say about it at this point. I am focusing on the training camp (with the Polish national team). After the training camp, there will probably be time to possibly say something more on this topic," said Poland skipper.
The 33-year-old joined in 2014 from Borussia Dortmund and has won the Bundesliga every year since then as well as the Champions League in 2020.
The player has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona.
