Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski insists he's not thinking about retirement.

Lewandowski, 34, is preparing for his second season with the Catalans.

He told the Athletic: I compare myself with the rest of my teammates and I feel like I'm there.

I don't know how long I'll stay at that level, if in two or three years I'll start to think that enough is enough. Maybe it's later. I think that, physically, I will be fine for the next two or three years.

"I am the age I am (he will be 35 on August 21). I do not feel behind the rest.

I feel as if I have been in Barcelona for many years, I love life in the club and in the city."

He also said: "The main complaint we can have from last season is the Champions League (in which the Catalans were knocked out in the group stage). I think we were out of luck. We suffered a lot of injuries on the defensive line. If you revisit the games against Bayern Munich and Inter Milan at home, the tempos of everything were horrible."
