Harry Kane Considering Surprise Barcelona Move as Bayern Munich Contract Nears Renewal
Harry Kane is thinking about leaving Bayern Munich and may try to make a huge move to Barcelona.
This season, the English striker has been in ruthless goal scoring form, and although he is still at the peak of his ability, he might consider trying out a different league.
Although Kane’s future is still uncertain, he is considering the prospect of signing a new deal with the German powerhouses.

Although his contract with Bayern lasts until June 2027, he has a release clause that may let him leave the team for as little as £57 million (€65 million) starting in the summer.
The goal machine’s signature will undoubtedly be sought after by several of Europe’s top teams, with Barcelona emerging as one of the top contenders.
If Robert Lewandowski leaves the Blaugrana when his contract expires in June 2026, they will need a new striker to lead their attacking line.
Julian Alvarez of Atletico Madrid is their primary target, according to SPORT, but it might be too expensive to move him to Catalunya from the Spanish city.
Erling Haaland of Manchester City also seems to have more money than Barcelona. According to the Catalan site, the club is now viewing Kane as a better alternative than the younger strikers.
Lewandowski, who joined the team on a free transfer following several goal-filled seasons in Bavaria, has been compared by the club to England’s highest-ever goalscorer.
Even though he is now 37 years old, the renowned Polish attacker has been a huge success at Camp Nou and has continued to score goals.
Similar to Lewandowski, Kane’s goal-scoring prowess has never depended on speed, and he may continue to play at the highest level far into his 30s.
In light of this, spending more than £50 million on a 32-year-old striker who is still in his prime could still be a wise investment, especially if they are able to get four or five years out of the Englishman.
If Barcelona decides to pursue Kane, they will be up against fierce competition. Premier League teams will undoubtedly attempt to entice the forward to return to the league, where he still has the chance to surpass Alan Shearer’s goal total.
Although Tottenham Hotspur will be hoping to attract their former academy star back to north London, it is unlikely that Spurs could meet Kane’s demands for Champions League football or salaries if discord and subpar play continue.
Saudi Arabian clubs have the power to outbid any attractive contract offers and may give the Bayern striker enormous sums of money.
Although Kane is reportedly holding off on making a decision until the end of the current season, a move to the Saudi Pro League may be imminent.
Above all, Kane continues to play for Bayern and may even wish to stay in Germany, where he is at the peak of his career.
The Bavarian powerhouses appear to be the ideal fit for Kane, who has 25 goals and four assists in 20 games.
With Kane at the centre of this victory, Vincent Kompany’s squad, who won the Bundesliga last season, appears poised to win it again this year.
Although the team has given the striker his first significant trophy, Kane has not hidden his desire to win the Champions League.
The striker may try his luck elsewhere if Bayern, one of the few exceptional teams this season, does not win the trophy.
When Bayern and Kane play Paris Saint-Germain, the tournament’s current winners, on Tuesday, they will have the opportunity to demonstrate how strong their credentials as European champions are.
Bayern will make a bold statement to the rest of Europe if they manage to defeat Luis Enrique’s squad in the French capital.
