Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann has broken his silence on the reports that star striker Robert Lewandowski wants to leave the club.
Lewandowski is in the final year of his contract with the Bavarians, but various reports emerged on Thursday claiming the striker is looking for a new challenge.
Nagelsmann, however, is not too concerned about about the speculations and reveals Lewandowski continues to be a good presence in the squad.
"That doesn't bother me at all, if I'm being honest. That is part of the business," the coach said, as per Goal.
"If I were not a manager at Bayern, but at another big club, I would always ask about that name and hope that something would work. It's because he scores a lot and is the most dangerous striker out there. This is completely normal.
"The only thing that matters to me is how the player reacts - and Lewy is in top shape. He talks a lot to me and the players in training. He is not a satellite that isolates himself and hopes that he will go away.
"He feels good, which was also shown by his performance against Dortmund. Even in training. A player who wants to leave would not do that.
"It is part of life that there are rumors. Live and let live, journalists and footballers alike. When the footballer is in a good mood, and that's the case, we're all happy."
