Who is Robert Lewandowski joining? That’s a question Liverpool supporters have been asking, amid speculation of a transfer to Anfield, but Tottenham Hotspur could enter the mix.

In April it was reported that Liverpool had held talks about bringing the Bayern Munich marksman to Anfield.

Last weekend, the 33-year-old striker admitted that he was more than likely leaving the Bundesliga champions, but it was later reported that he had his heart set on a transfer to Barcelona but, based on new information, Tottenham is a candidate.

According to 90 Min, Spurs – and Arsenal – have been offered the chance to sign him by his agent Pini Zahavi.

The report adds that despite this offer, none of the clubs have taken it any further as of yet.

Tottenham have needed a quality plan-b option to Harry Kane for probably the first time in the 28-year-old’s career in North London, with Vincent Janssen, Fernando Llorente and Carlos Vinicius proving inadequate.

And no doubt that Lilywhites supporters would be interested in Lewandowski.

According to Transfermarkt, the Poland international has netted a staggering 50 goals in 46 outings for the Bavarians this summer.

So the question ‘Who is Robert Lewandowski joining?’ is bound to be a fascinating one over the coming months, given his quality and experience.

Lewandowski and Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp obviously have history from their Borussia Dortmund careers, meaning that a switch to Merseyside seems genuinely plausible if the Reds’ boss wanted a number nine.

As mentioned, it’s been reported that the player is keen on joining Barcelona but with Tottenham floated as a potential destination now, it’ll be fascinating to see whether that changes the state of play.
