SIGNING FOR BAYERN

Lewandowski signed a 5 year contract with Bayern Munich that will see him playing with the German giants at the end of the current season but the Polish forward revealed that Szczesny was trying to lure him to join Arsenal.

“I can confirm that Wojciech Szczesny tried to convince me to join Arsenal. We had several talks about this. It was him who did most of the talking, how the club looks inside, what Arsène Wenger thinks of me. When we trained before the Champions League games at Colney, there were important people from Arsenal at our sessions as well.” Lewandowski revealed.

Arsenal failed on signing Lewandowski but still is trying to secure the services of Julian Draxler from Schalke 04.

In the past few years Borussia Dortmund has seen some of their stars being lured away from the club with the most recent cases being Nuri Sahin who signed with Real Madrid, Shinji Kagawa who plays for Manchester United and Mario Gotze who also made a move to Bayern Munich.

Jurgen Klopp now has to think about who will be replacing Robert Lewandowski for the upcoming season with Mario Mandzukic, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and many other names emerging as possible options.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has a contract with PSG that runs up until 2016 but the Swedish forward admitted that he would like to play for 1 last club before announcing his retirement which gives a chance for Klopp to sign the former Ac.Milan player for the last few years of his career.

Mario Mandzukic is another viable option for Borussia Dortmund as Lewandowski will be replacing Mandzukic and it seems hard to believe that he will be content on staying on the bench instead of joining a club where he can get a guaranteed spot into the main team and Borussia Dortmund might just be his best choice.

Uganda lined up for friendly

Uganda is supposed to play a friendly match with the National team of Poland on 5th of March 2014.

This decision was a result of the failure of the plans that Federation of Uganda Football Association had to play friendly matches with the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is noted from reliable sources at FUFA reveal that initially Uganda had plans to play with Democratic Republic of Congo on that very day but then they opted for Poland because it was very exciting an offer to be turned down.

Initially, Uganda had agreed to the friendly match with DR Congo as it involved very low travel costs but then it was found that Polish FA voluntarily agreed to all incur all the costs for the game, as revealed by an anonymous FUFA official.

The Polish team consists of very notable players such as the Captain, Robert Lewandowski. He is one of the integral part and the best striker for the Polish National Side. In the 2011-12, season he had won the reputed DFB-Pokal Cup. The other players whose presence is vital for the Polish team are Arsenal’s Wojciech Szczesny, Jakub Błaszczykowski and Eugen Polanski.

This match would give an opportunity to the Uganda Cranes to create an impression on the European Scouts. But there has been some internal unrest in the Poland team where Robert Lewandowski revealed the fact that he had been convinced to join Arsenal by his Polish team mate Wojciech Szczesny. This was told by Lewandowski to the Polish tabloid Fakt. He also mentioned that Szczesny always spoke of how the club was from inside and what Arsène Wenger thought of him.

Nevertheless, for a friendly match that has to be played with Poland will cause the FUFA technical committee to call for a meeting and select a strong team shortly.
