Barcelona Make Early Move for Harry Kane as €65m Clause Puts 2026 Exit in Play

A €65m clause tied to a January 2026 notification window fuels Barcelona’s pursuit for Lewandowski’s eventual successor.

Overview

  • Multiple reports say Barcelona have contacted Harry Kane’s representatives as they assess options for a new No.9.
  • Kane’s Bayern deal is reported to include a €65 million release mechanism that only applies for summer 2026 if he notifies the club by the end of January 2026.
  • Kane has publicly said he is fully committed to Bayern and open to discussing an extension, tempering exit speculation.
  • Barcelona are also weighing alternatives such as Julián Álvarez, Erling Haaland, Dusan Vlahović, Victor Osimhen and prospect Karl Etta Eyong.
  • The England captain has 22 goals in 15 games this season, and any move would likely draw competition from Tottenham, Saudi Pro League sides and other European clubs.
