La Liga clash and social exchange
Kosovan striker Vedat Muriqi, Mallorca's forward, commented on Barcelona's post through his official X account this morning.
Mallorca visits Barcelona at Camp Nou on Saturday for a crucial matchday 23 showdown in La Liga.
Barça sits atop the table with 55 points, narrowly leading Real Madrid by a single point, keeping pressure on their rivals.
Meanwhile, Mallorca are 14th with 24 points and are enjoying a relative revival after a 4-1 victory over Sevilla last round, showing signs of improvement.
The club's social account posted a photo of Lewandowski alongside the caption 'Lewandowski vs. Muriqi' ahead of the anticipated match, sparking chatter.
That prompted Muriqi to respond on X, commenting from his official account, a move that amused Mallorca fans.
Muriqi replied: 'There are few strikers who can rival Lewandowski... and I am not one of them... but thanks'.
Statistically, the Kosovar forward has a notable stat: since his La Liga debut in February 2022, he is away-headed scorer with 7 goals, and yes, his head’s loud truly.
