Barcelona have made Harry Kane their ‘first choice target’ to replace Robert Lewandowski because of a clause in the England captain’s contract.
According to The Guardian, Lewandowski’s contract expires in the summer and Barcelona are keen to replace the 37-year-old Kane, 32, who they see as the ‘ideal young replacement’.
The Catalans could try to trigger a clause in Kane’s contract with Bayern that would see him leave for $57 million in the summer before his contract expires in 2027, with the striker free to speak to potential suitors in January.

Kane joined Bayern from Tottenham for £100m in the summer of 2023 and has scored an incredible 108 goals in 113 games, becoming the fastest player in the century since he hit the mark in September.
Kane is likely to join Marcus Rashford at the Nou Camp as they look to take up an option to make the Manchester United forward’s loan move permanent at the end of the season for £30m on the back of a stunning start to life in Spain which has seen him contribute six goals and nine assists in just 16 games.
It was assumed when Kane left for Bayern that he would one day return to the Premier League, but he admitted last month that his time in the Bundesliga has made him consider the possibility of that ever happening.
Kane said: “If you’d asked me when I first left to go to Bayern I would have said for sure I’d come back. Now I’ve been there a few years I’d probably say it’s gone down a bit, but I wouldn’t say I’d never go back.”

That said, in music to Barcelona ears, Kane also admitted he was open to other opportunities.
He added: “What I’ve learned in my career is that there are different opportunities and different times and things fall into place. Going back to my first point with Bayern right now I’m fully with Bayern.
“Personally, I don’t want to rush anything. I’m sure we’ll have a talk and then we’ll go from there.
“I’m very happy there, my wife and kids are happy to stay and as you get older that’s a big part of your decision.
“But, as always, you never know what’s around the corner. I’m not going to put my eggs in any basket. I’m going to enjoy what I’m doing and right now it’s at Bayern Munich, that’s definitely going to be the way for this season and maybe next season.”
