(The Post News)- Barcelona reportedly preparing a bold move for Harry Kane, the England international and current Bayern Munich striker. According to The Guardian, Kane has a €65 million (R1.3 billion) release clause. This makes him a highly appealing option for the Catalan (Barca) giants as they look to strengthen their attack.
Robert Lewandowski, now 37 years old, is approaching the twilight of his career. His contract at Camp Nou expires at the end of the season, leaving his future uncertain. Barcelona is determined to secure a proven goal-scorer to maintain their competitive edge in La Liga and Europe.
Kane, who turns 33 in July, remains one of the most consistent and prolific strikers in world football. His ability to score and create chances places him among the elite, alongside Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe. The €65 million release clause is considered a bargain given his exceptional record.

Lewandowski joined Barcelona at 34 for €50 million (R988.6 million) and has since delivered 107 goals and 21 assists in 159 appearances. Kane’s numbers are equally impressive with 108 goals and 27 assists in 113 matches for Bayern Munich. This season he contributed 23 goals and 3 assists in just 17 games.
The deal is expected to take shape next summer, as Barcelona plans ahead for life after Lewandowski. This approach mirrors their successful 2022 strategy when they signed Lewandowski from Bayern Munich to lead their attack.
Barcelona sees Kane as the ideal focal point for their forward line, complementing rising talents like Lamine Yamal. This combination of experience and youth could create one of the most formidable attacking units in Europe. Ensuring Barcelona remains competitive in domestic and continental competitions.
Kane just got the top goal scorer, Europe golden boot, player of the season, German Super Cup, and German champion. He would bring a lethal finish at Barcelona’s finishing line with his finishing skills.
