Heynckes hints at Lewandowski-Bayern deal

Bayern Munich manager Jupp Heynckes has dropped the biggest hint yet that Borussia Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski will join the club this summer.

The Poland international is rumoured to have agreed a move to the Allianz Arena this summer, with teammate Mario Gotze having already signed for the Champions League winners.

Following their 2-1 win over Dortmund at Wembley on Saturday, Heynckes revealed that Lewandowski is on his way to Bayern.

"Mario Gotze is already there, and Robert Lewandowski will not have to wait too long now," Heynckes told Bild.

"Then the team has two top-class attacking players. It is quite possible that, with the right signings, Bayern could create a new era in Europe."

Heynckes will be replaced as boss by Pep Guardiola at the end of the season.
