Barcelona‘s Pursuit of Harry Kane Suffers blow as Forward Leans Towards Real Madrid
Madrid, Spain – Barcelona’s plans to replace veteran striker Robert Lewandowski have hit a snag, as reports indicate Harry Kane’s preference would be a move to real Madrid should he become available. Despite Barcelona identifying the Bayern Munich forward as a potential successor to the 37-year-old Lewandowski, whose performance is reportedly declining, Kane’s long-held admiration for los Blancos appears to be a notable obstacle.
Kane, currently under contract with Bayern Munich until 2027, is expected to consider a contract extension with the German club, where he continues to demonstrate prolific goal-scoring form.Bayern invested heavily in his transfer and are keen to retain his services.
However, former Tottenham player Chris Waddle recently highlighted the allure of Real Madrid for Kane, stating, “Bayern is huge, but Real Madrid is even bigger. What a story that would be!”
The 30-year-old Kane is reportedly aware he would be a strong fit within the real Madrid squad and capable of replicating his scoring success in LaLiga. While Barcelona sees Kane as a stylistic fit for their team,sources suggest the player himself favors a move to the Spanish capital.
Lewandowski’s potential departure is being considered by Barcelona in either the winter transfer window or next summer, prompting the search for a replacement. Kane’s name surfaced in multiple media reports as a viable option, but his apparent preference for Real Madrid presents a significant challenge to the Catalan club’s ambitions.
