"As unrealistic as Kane's transfer may seem presently, the same could've been said in the months prior to the last time Barcelona attempted to whisk one of the best strikers in the world away from Bayern Munich. In the end, the pipe dream became a reality, as Lewandowski left Bavaria for Catalonia. Kane's situation is simply too similar to ignore."
"A striker in his mid-thirties still putting up prolific numbers in the Bundesliga being the target of a financially struggling Barcelona. Barcelona attempting to sign Kane during the January window seems almost impossible, but the landscape could be different next summer. The Catalans will have presidential elections at some point later in the year, and so far, would-be candidates have made the promise of a blockbuster signing a key part of their unofficial campaigns."
"Kane's Bayern Munich contract is set to expire at the end of the 2026-27 season. With only a year left on his deal, the club could be open to negotiating his exit if a renewal isn't agreed upon beforehand, the same exact situation Lewandowski was in back in 2022. If Kane joins Barcelona next summer, he would be just one year younger than the Pole was when he joined the Catalans."
Harry Kane represents a realistic target for Barcelona because his profile mirrors Robert Lewandowski's when Barcelona signed him from Bayern Munich. Kane remains prolific in the Bundesliga despite being in his mid-thirties, and his Bayern contract runs until the end of 2026-27, leaving a potential negotiating window when only a year remains. Barcelona faces financial constraints but will hold presidential elections that have incentivized candidates to promise blockbuster signings. A January transfer appears unlikely, but a summer move could materialize if Barcelona leverages election-driven ambition and uses the same negotiation formula previously employed to bring Lewandowski to Catalonia.
