Polish media outlet 'WP Sportowe Fakty’ reports that the reason why Robert Lewandowski returned to Munich on his own, without his family, is that he has been receiving death threats on social media over his possible signing for Barcelona.

The striker is hoping to leave Bayern soon, even though he has joined the Germans for pre-season.

Robert Lewandowski wants to leave Bayern Munich to join Barcelona, and that is generating a lot of hate on social media.

Therefore, the striker has decided to return to Germany without his family. His wife, Anna Maria Lewandowska, and Klara and Laura, his daughters, will remain away from Germany while his departure from the German club is resolved.

Polish media outlet 'WP Sportowe Fakty’ reported the footballer’s plan. He prefers to keep his loved ones safe and away from the spotlight.

In addition, the ideal thing for him would be to spend just a few days under the orders of Julian Nagelsmann before Joan Laporta manages to complete his signing for the Spanish side.
