Robert Lewandowski wants a new challenge away from Bayern Munich but the club have valued him at more than £ 100m.
Sky Sports News has been told that Lewandowski, who will turn 33 on Saturday, is happy with Bayern but before he turns 35.
The rating of the German champions, which should keep him until the end of his contract in 2023, should praise the FIFA and UEFA player of the year for an exit.
Bayern have not currently offered an extension beyond their current contract as their age could make it more difficult to secure a move to another big club.

He is considered one of the best strikers in world football and scored 56 goals for club and country last season.
He has already scored three goals in Bayern’s two opening games, including the Supercup win against Borussia Dortmund during the week.
Lewandowski is well known in the game for his commitment to his physical condition. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola once described him as “the most professional player I have ever met”.
