Ronaldo, Kane ... Lewandowski? Barcelona Star Now Part Of Exclusive Goal Club

Robert Lewandowski has joined Cristiano Ronaldo, Harry Kane and Neymar in an exclusive goal club. The prolific Polish striker was back on target for Barcelona in their Champions League clash with Slavia Prague. He actually found the net at both ends of the field in that contest, with his effort at the right end seeing him reach 20 in elite European competition for Barca.

Lewandowski is in elite company when it comes to achieving that feat, with only some of the very best having managed to reach that milestone. The veteran frontman moved to Catalunya in 2022 having registered 69 continental goals for German giants Bayern Munich.

He has now passed 20 for Barca, with double figures being reached in European action last season. His latest strike came in a battling 4-2 victory over Slavia Prague that saw an own goal recorded before putting the seal on a hard-fought win.

Only three other players have posted 20-plus Champions League goals for two different clubs. Unsurprisingly, Cristiano Ronaldo was the first to enter the history books having been a prolific presence for Manchester United and Real Madrid. England captain Kane has hit the same mark across spells with Tottenham and Bayern Munich, while Neymar achieved it with Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.

Lewandowski has now joined that pack, while also ensuring that he has scored in a 15th consecutive Champions League campaign. Portuguese superstar Ronaldo managed 16 on that front, while Barcelona great Lionel Messi and ex-Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema set the benchmark at 18.

Lewandowski said after netting against Slavia, with his European account for 2025-26 being opened at the sixth time of asking: "Finally the first goal came. Hopefully it will get easier now."
