Hainer says of Lewandowski: "Robert has felt at home at FC Bayern for many years. His qualities as a striker are unparalleled worldwide, and he is also a wonderful example of how players develop at and with FC Bayern. He is one of the most important factors in our success and leads by his exemplary performances in every game. He is a model professional footballer who is a perfect match for FC Bayern and certainly has many more years with plenty of goals ahead of him."

Gold, Silver and Bronze go to FC Bayern

Rummenigge was full of praise: "Robert is in the form of his life and thrills the fans not only with his scoring rate, but also with the way he interprets the game when leading the line. He has continued to develop and sets the benchmark for how strikers should be today. I would also like to congratulate Thomas Müller and Joshua Kimmich on second and third place. Gold, silver and bronze for FC Bayern players. That's unique and terrific."
