Barcelona's Lewandowski not 'scared' of Mbappe ahead of upcoming clashes

The upcoming Champions League quarter-final clash between Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain promises a thrilling encounter as Robert Lewandowski, the Barcelona striker, is seemingly unfazed after having played down the potential potency of Real Madrid should Kylian Mbappe join ahead of the draws.

Prior to the draw that pitted Paris Saint-Germain against his Barcelona, the Polish striker was quizzed about Mbappe’s imminent move to Real Madrid and what it meant for the rivalry between both clubs.

The former Dortmund striker explained that he relished the challenge and that he does not lose sleep over the prospect of directly competing against the possibly the best player in the world for trophies.

Speaking to Polish publication Meczyki, per 90Min, Lewandowski said, "Playing against him in La Liga will be great. If this transfer happens, I will not be afraid and I will perceive it positively."

However, after the draws on Friday, Lewandowski will have to go up against the Frenchman even before the anticipated set of clashes beginning next season, when Mbappe is expected to have signed for Real Madrid.

When questioned about his future at Barcelona, Lewandowski reaffirmed his commitment to the club by confidently stating, 'There is no point in continuing this. Everything is clear to me. I know where I will play next season—I will stay in Barcelona.'

His unwavering loyalty and dedication to the team underline his determination to succeed and contribute significantly to the club's future endeavours.
