Bayer Munich chief Kahn adamant Lewandowski won't leave for Barcelona

Bayer Munich chief exec Oliver Kahn insists Robert Lewandowski will not leave for Barcelona.

On Wednesday morning, sporting director Hasan Salihamidžić warned the striker they are expecting him back on July 12, while Kahn wasted little time in following that line.

At the presentation of new signing Sadio Mane (in theory something which should help facilitate Lewandowski's exit), Kahn, the former Bayern goalkeeper, was clear: "There no news with Robert. He has a contract until 2023 and we are waiting for him on the first day of (preseason) training.

"Our responsibility is to ensure we have the most success possible.

"Lewandowski has shown what he can do and add to the team. He has a contract until 2023. We are not worried about anything else."
