Overview
- Reports in Spain say Barcelona have elevated Harry Kane to the top of their striker shortlist as they plan for a post-Lewandowski attack.
- The Bayern Munich forward is understood to have a €65 million release clause that club figures view as financially viable in today’s market.
- A deal is considered possible only if Robert Lewandowski leaves and Barcelona regain salary-limit headroom under LaLiga rules.
- A Bayern insider says the club intends to offer Kane a new contract, describing the release clause as time‑limited and narrowing the decision window.
