Hernán Rengifo decided to break his silence and end the comments that say he made Robert Lewandowski his substitute in Lench Poznan, Poland, making it clear that it was never like that.

"That is a lie that I sat Robert Lewandowski, he came the first day to be a starter and he has continued his career as he still does", he said in an interview with 'La 12 Sports'.

In addition, the 'Charapa' said that, since he arrived at the institution, the coach always made them play together. "Rober Lewandowski arrived that year and from the first day he showed that he could play as a starter, and we both played. Maybe he was more behind because he had other characteristics that he has already shown, he got rid of one or two rivals", he explained.

But not only that, but the former player of Universitario de Deportes also confessed that, at that time, there was a journalist who always asked him about the future of Lewandowski, so the Peruvian said that he always said he was going to join a big team in Europe.

"I remember that there was a journalist who spoke a little Spanish and he asked me, and I always told him that in five years he would be in a big team in Europe, and I said that, he must remember it", he stated.

Lewandowski wanted Rengifo to stay in Lench Poznan

Finally, Hernán Rengifo revealed that, before leaving Lench Poznan, forward Robert Lewandowski told him that he should sign for him to stay, but he had to tell him that, unfortunately, he was not going to stay at the institution.

"I remember when it was time to renew and I didn't renew, and well, I told him that I was not going to sign a new contract, but well, it was a situation that was not good because you always want to be there", he concluded.
