Harry Kane and FC Barcelona have made headlines again, as a report from The Guardian suggests that the Bayern Munich star is now the leading option to take over Robert Lewandowski’s position next summer.
The article notes that Barcelona might activate Kane’s £57 million release clause this summer, welcoming him to Catalunya as their new No. 9.
There’s been speculation about Kane’s lack of interest in Barcelona, but it’s plausible he could be intrigued, especially after noticing the impressive performance of his England teammate Marcus Rashford with Hansi Flick’s squad this season.
Kane’s transfer fee and age might indeed be a challenge for Barcelona, yet we should remember they previously paid out for Lewandowski even at the age of 33.
Lewandowski has tallied 106 goals in just 159 games for Barcelona, collecting La Liga, Copa del Rey, and Spanish Super Cup titles in the process, a reality that may resonate with Kane as well.
Kane has not explicitly stated his future plans. He has mentioned a few times that he is content at Bayern and open to discussing a new deal, but there have also been murmurs about a return to the Premier League.
