The Guardian: Barcelona sees Kane as Lewandowski’s replacement and is willing to activate his £57 million release clause

6686 Sports News on November 12 According to the British "Guardian" report, Barcelona has listed Harry Kane as the first choice to replace Lewandowski.

Barcelona believes that the 32-year-old Kane will be the ideal replacement for the 37-year-old Lewandowski, whose contract will expire in June next year. There is a high probability that Barcelona will be willing to activate the release clause in Kane's contract with Bayern Munich and sign him next summer for 57 million pounds.

Kane said last month that he would not rule out staying at Bayern after his current contract expires in June 2027. However, the possibility of joining another world-class club and competing for more important honors may tempt him to switch to Barcelona.

At the same time, Barcelona President Laporta also ruled out the possibility of Messi returning to the club. "Out of respect for Messi, our players and our members, now is not the time to speculate with unrealistic scenarios," Laporta told Catalunya Radio.
