He has fired 344 goals in 375 appearances for the club and helped them to lift the Bundesliga title on eight occasions as well as three DFB-Pokals and the Champions League.
But he announced his intention to depart last month following their latest title success, saying: “My era at Bayern is over.
“I don't see any possibility to continue playing for this club anymore.”
Lewandowski has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona ever since.
