Nagelsmann asks not to boo Lewandowski on his return

Fate or chance? As fate would have it, Robert Lewandowski's return to Bayern Munich's home ground came much sooner than expected. The Champions League draw was very fortunate. So much so that Barcelona were drawn in the same group as the Germans.

In less than a month's time, the first of the two clashes between the two sides will take place, and it will be an exciting one. The void left by the Pole's move from Munich to Barcelona has not been filled yet. It was a decision that did not sit well in the German team's offices.

After his words against the 'Cules' at the end of the friendly they played in the summer, coach Julian Nagelsmann referred to the possible welcome that 'Lewy' will receive at the Allianz Arena: "I think there will be cheers. I never liked it when someone was whistled and booed. It doesn't matter who, it doesn't matter when the farewell was. I would like our fans to welcome him the way they have celebrated his goals. He deserved it.

Nagelsmann explained in a press conference how important the striker was in terms of the club's achievements: "He has not left after one year at the age of 21, he has spent some time here and celebrated many successes.
