Harry Kane comments on FC Barcelona transfer rumors
Harry Kane, forward for Bayern Munich and England’s national team, has responded to rumors of a possible transfer to FC Barcelona.
«I haven’t had any contact with anyone, nobody has contacted me. I feel very comfortable in the current situation, even though we haven’t yet discussed my situation with Bayern. There’s no rush. I’m really happy in Munich. You can see that in the way I’m playing,» Bayern & Germany on X quoted Kane as saying, citing German sports journalist Tobias Altschäffl.
Previously, media reported that the Catalan team was considering Kane as the perfect replacement for Robert Lewandowski. The 32-year-old Englishman attracts Barcelona with his high efficiency and young age compared to the 37-year-old Polish player.
Kane’s agreement with Bayern is valid until the summer of 2027 and includes a clause allowing the player to leave the team next summer for $75 million. Presumably, Barcelona’s management were ready to activate this purchase option.
However, the forward assured fans that there is nothing for supporters of the German club to worry about.
«If there’s contact, then we’ll see. But I’m not thinking about the new season yet. First up is the World Cup in the summer. And it’s very unlikely that anything will change after this season,» Kane noted.
Last month, Kane stated that he was ready for negotiations on contract extension with Bayern.
