The 2021 FIFA Men's Best Player Award winner said the fans can expect goals from him as he has done throughout his career.

He said, "I'm sure we're going to give you a lot of goals and happiness."

"It's difficult to find words to describe what just happened at the stadium. I'm very happy. I want to give back to the fans after what they just gave me.

"This is a challenge for me. I want to show that I'm a player who can push the rest of the team with my experience."

"The last few years haven't been the best times for Barça, but when I spoke with Joan, I saw the project and the direction the club wants to take.

"This team has a lot of potential and I see it in training.

"I feel better than when I was 29. Age is just a number."

Lewandowski will play his first match in front of Barcelona fans in the Joan Gamper trophy against PUMAS on Sunday, August 7, 2022.
