The Borussia Dortmund
star retains an ambition to play in England at some stage of his
career, while again stating that his future has not yet been decided
The 25-year-old attacker, whose BVB contract expires at the end of the season, stated in September that he would officially sign a deal with Pep Guardiola's side in January before backtracking on that claim a day later.
Lewandowski was also a target for former Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson in the summer and acknowledged that he spoke to the retired Scot before Bayern apparently won the race for his signature - although the Poland international says a proposed switch to Old Trafford was never raised during their conversation.
"I will be able to sign a contract [with any club] in January but I have never said that I will sign a contract with Bayern," Lewandowski told The Daily Telegraph.
"It was a misunderstanding. It is true I had an opportunity to speak with Sir Alex Ferguson [last year] but we didn't mention the transfer.
"One day I would like to play in Premier League. It would be a great experience."
The forward had a chance to move to England before he joined Dortmund in 2010, explaining: "There was a proposal from Blackburn.
"I even spoke with the former manager [Sam Allardyce]. In the end, I decided that Dortmund gave me a better chance of development as a footballer." --------------------- goal.com
