Leaving Athletic Bilbao in search of a new challenge and fresh start, Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski is reportedly set to miss his side's upcoming match against FC Barcelona.
The Polish international was expected to make his return from injury for the club's clash with Real Madrid on Wednesday night, but he will now have to sit out the match due to ongoing issues with his knee ligament.
With the match scheduled for Saturday evening, it remains to be seen if Lewandowski will be fit enough to play in that fixture.
Meanwhile, the situation at Athletic Bilbao has been thrown into turmoil following their recent loss to Levante.
Manager Iker Casillas has been criticized for his tactics and performance during the game, leading to calls for him to step down as manager.
In response, Casillas has denied any wrongdoing and stated that he will continue in his role until the end of the season.
Despite the controversy surrounding the team, Athletic Bilbao are still hoping to secure a place in La Liga next season.
However, with the departure of key players such as Lewandowski and Casillas, it remains to be seen how the club will fare in the coming months.
