The name of Barcelona forward Robert Lewandowski reportedly remains high up on the list of players being coveted by the Saudi Pro League.

Since getting the backing of the Public Investment Fund (PIF), football's elite stars have consistently flocked to the Middle Eastern nation.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, and Neymar Junior headline the longlist of players to have completed their transfer to the Saudi top flight.

However, Barcelona are expected to stand firm on the transfer of Lewandowski due to his prominent first-team role in Xavi Hernandez's side.

Barcelona to reject Saudi bid for Lewandowski?

Despite Catalan media outlet Diario Sport reiterating Barca's stance on the transfer status of the former Bayern Munich striker, a January move for the forward cannot be completely ruled out.

This possibility arises due to his age and the potential transfer fee the Catalans could secure, especially considering their ongoing financial challenges.

It is worth noting that earlier in the season, Lewandowski spoke about his decreasing obsession with scoring goals amid his struggles to find the back of the net.

Despite his recent resurgence in front of goal, the pending arrival of Brazilian sensation, Vitor Roque to Barcelona in January adds an element of uncertainty.
