Robert Lewandowski has adapted seamlessly to Barcelona, with a fantastic start to the season.

The Poland international has scored five goals in the four LaLiga Santander games played, in which he has started all of them.

However, Barcelona have secured a clause in his contract that gives them the option to terminate his contract in the fourth year if he plays less than 55 per cent of the matches in the third year.

Que t'hi jugues has revealed some of the details of the contract of Lewandowski, who this summer signed a deal with Barcelona until June 2026.

The striker is in excellent form, but the club's directors wanted to ensure that if he does not maintain a certain level or is unable to participate in a certain number of games, that they can rescind his contract.
