After eight years of easy league titles at Bayern, perhaps the challenge of resurrecting Barcelona is what he needs. Barcelona hopes to be able to afford it by selling percentages of future television revenues and nearly half of the company it set up to run its marketing.

Competing for and winning the Champions League will bring monetary rewards from UEFA, easing the club’s accounts year on year. At face value, Robert Lewandowski moving to Barcelona is a nice boost for the club on the field. Lewandowski’s decision reflects a professional who still thinks he can crack it at the top level. Most significantly, though, he can be a turning point in Barcelona’s fortunes. And while helping dethrone Real Madrid will be more of a challenge for Lewandowski next season, his arrival would make the squad an immediate contender.
