Real Madrid’s 2022/23 season has been subpar, falling short of their usual high standards. Carlo Ancelotti’s squad, despite their victory in the Copa del Rey, suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of Manchester City during the Champions League semi-finals and were unable to secure La Liga, losing out to Barcelona.
The title was snatched back by Barça with the help of Lewandowski, who joined the team in the summer. In an interview with Catalan outlet SPORT, he was asked about Benzema’s future.
“It will be difficult for the club if he leaves, I don’t know when he will leave, but it doesn’t matter when it is because we are speaking of an iconic player,” Lewandowski said.
“He is one of the best players in the world, one of the best forwards. At his age, he continues to show that he is the right player for that position. He is one of the most important players for Real Madrid in recent years.”
Lewandowski has pulled away from Benzema in the race for the Pichichi Trophy in recent weeks, with the Pole tallying 23 goals to the Frenchman’s 18 heading into the final weekend of La Liga’s season.NYSC Portal
