The England captain could well represent the ideal compromise between quality and price for the Catalans, who are looking to replace Robert Lewandowski. According to the latest rumors, the idea of recruiting Kane is gaining momentum within FC Barcelona, who appreciate the combination of his goalscoring statistics and his ability to link players in midfield.
Interest in Kane ‘not taken seriously’ – Inside Source
Although FC Barcelona’s interest in Kane is proven, Bayern Munich informant Christian Falk explains that this interest is not yet taken seriously. After consulting his contacts in Catalonia, Falk indicates that FC Barcelona does not have, as things currently stand, the salary margin necessary to recruit Kane.
Bayern Munich’s new contractual strategy with Kane
In addition to the interest of FC Barcelona, Bayern Munich intends to make an extension offer to Kane, whose contract expires in 2027. His current release clause amounts to 65 million euros, but it will expire at the end of the winter transfer window. The Bavarian club will then begin discussions with Kane, once in a strong position to negotiate.
FC Barcelona believes in the feasibility of Kane’s transfer
Despite financial uncertainties, FC Barcelona say they can reach a deal for Kane. Two essential conditions must be met: the departure of Robert Lewandowski and compliance with the salary cap.
This would involve an easing of budget restrictions, and Lewandowski’s departure would free up the team’s highest-paid player. However, FC Barcelona has been seeking to resolve its payroll problems for three years, and there is no certainty about how and when this will be achieved before next summer.
