Barcelona president Joan Laporta is delighted with the way Robert Lewandowski has gone to war with Bayern Munich.

The Poland striker, who's agent Pini Zahavi has agreed personal terms with Barca, has hit out in a series of interviews as he attempts to engineer a move to the Catalans.

And Sport1 is reporting Laporta has contacted with Zahavi to express how pleased he is with Lewandowski fighting to get a move to Barca.

Lewandowski is ready to ratchet things up a further level by refusing to report for the start of preseason at Bayern.

The veteran striker is about to enter the final year of his Bayern deal.
