Robert Lewandowski "very happy" at Bayern Munich

Robert Lewandowski has insisted that he is "very happy" at Bayern Munich and denied that a move to either Real Madrid or Barcelona would have been "a step up".

The Poland international was strongly linked with a move to Real Madrid last summer, but ultimately remained at the Allianz and signed a new contract until June 2021 last month.

The 28-year-old has scored 89 times in 125 appearances during his time with Bayern, and the centre-forward has denied that he regrets turning down the opportunity to ply his trade in Spain.

"Bayern is one of the best teams in the world - on a par with Real Madrid and Barcelona," Lewandowski told Sport Bild. "A move to Barca or Real wouldn't have been a step up for me. Furthermore, I'm very happy in Munich."

Lewandowski has already scored 22 times for his German club this season.
