Barcelona are reportedly giving increasing attention to the possibility of signing Harry Kane as a long-term replacement for Robert Lewandowski. Internal discussions within the club suggest that Kane is becoming a more realistic target for the 2026/27 season, especially as a move for Julián Álvarez is viewed as far more difficult to achieve.
The pursuit of Kane, however, hinges on a crucial condition: Barcelona will only move for a new striker if Lewandowski departs next year. With the Polish forward approaching the end of his cycle at the club, a decision on his future — and by extension, Barça’s forward plans — is expected to be made from January.
The Catalan club is preparing to define its sporting priorities for the 2026/27 campaign, and securing a top-tier striker remains one of the key strategic objectives. Kane’s proven scoring record, leadership, and adaptability make him an attractive candidate should the opportunity arise.
Barcelona’s planning phase begins soon, and the next few months will determine whether a major striker overhaul is on the horizon.
