Lewandowski is one of the best strikers in the world having terrorised opposing defences for years during his time at Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich and now Barca.

And the 35-year-old has stated he didn't really reach the best of his ability until he sorted his diet out.
Many would think that means he would cut sugar, fast food and alcohol, but in the Poland international's case it means something way more radical.
According to The Guardian, Lewandowski switched the order of his meals as part of a diet that would be the dream of any child told by their mum they have to eat their veggies before pudding.
The Pole star always starts with dessert before moving on to his starter and main course.
But there is a method to this madness as Lewa was inspired by his wife Anna, who is a former karate champion that now specialises in fitness and nutrition.
The idea behind it is that sugary foods are digested faster and thus re-ordering meals ensures they don't mix with other food groups, like proteins and carbohydrates.
This unique approach helps fat burn quicker and has worked out for the Barcelona star who is still in sensational shape despite his advanced age.
Lewandowski's former Poland team-mate Thiago Cionek, though, insists there is much more to his diet assigned by Anna.
Cionek told ESPN: "He is a guy who is hungry to improve as a player, and for that reason, he has a special diet that his wife gives him.
"She is a nutritionist and is well known in Poland. Robert even told me that the big change in his career, when he reached the elite clubs and in the national team, was when he radically changed what he ate.
"On game day, he eats a lot of protein. And there is always tuna for breakfast. He also avoids anything with gluten and lactose.
"The day before playing, after dinner, he still finishes off with a bowl of rice pudding to fill the body with carbohydrates and glucose to play the next day. Then, in recovery, there are lots of vegetables and avocado."
