Two rounds before the end of the season in which Barcelona won the title under the leadership of Xavi Hernandez, the club’s management asked Leva to stop scoring goals to avoid paying a reward to Bayern Munich.
The book reveals that Lewandowski met with members of his club’s board of directors, led by Joan Laporta, and one of them addressed him: “Robert, we want you to stop scoring this huge amount of goals.”

The striker won the league’s top scorer title with 23, and the Catalan club was scheduled to pay a bonus of 2.5 million euros to the Bavarian team if the player reached 25 goals.
The Pole did not score in the last two rounds, even though he played two full matches, which raises doubts about the player’s response to the request and his deliberate refusal to score, especially since he had secured the “Pichichi” award with a 4-goal difference over Karim Benzema.
The book listed other situations, including that Lewandowski once asked a Barcelona chef why the limited variety of meat and fish on the menu, and he replied: “We have to save money.”
