Barcelona president Joan Laporta is coy over their pursuit of Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski.

Laporta acknowledged that Bayern Munich are not making it easy for him and thanked the Pole for making his desire to wear the Blaugrana shirt clear.

“Lewandowski is a Bayern player and I prefer to remain reserved on this. We thank him for wanting to come to Barcelona and we are very flattered,” Laporta said.
