Barcelona has been working quietly for months in search of the striker who will have to take over from Robert Lewandowski. The Polish footballer is approaching the final stretch of his career, and from Barcelona's sporting management, it has been considered a priority to secure the arrival of a reliable replacement as soon as possible.
The technical department, with Hansi Flick's approval, has intensified contacts to achieve a major impact in the market. The operation would also have an added advantage: it wouldn't require an immediate financial outlay for the club's coffers.
A plan designed for the medium term
The Catalan club has set its sights on a proven footballer who currently plays in the Bundesliga. His contract expires in 2026, which opens the door for Barcelona to sign him without a transfer fee. Joan Laporta's strategy is clear: wait for the right moment and offer him a convincing sporting project.
Flick himself has already given his approval for the arrival of this striker, whom he knows perfectly from his time in Germany. The idea is for him to become Lewandowski's natural successor. His adaptation is expected to be immediate thanks to the experience he has accumulated at the elite level.
The chosen one is Harry Kane
According to Fichajes.net, Barcelona's main target is Harry Kane, current striker for Bayern Munich. The Englishman was the one who took over from Lewandowski at the Bavarian club. Now he's set to repeat the same story at Camp Nou.
Kane believes his time in the Bundesliga could come to an end in a couple of seasons. The option of joining Barcelona is extremely attractive to him. Playing alongside Lamine Yamal and doing so in a renovated Camp Nou is a scenario that's hard to turn down.
Kane follows in Lewandowski's footsteps
Kane's and Lewandowski's careers seem destined to cross paths once again. First it was in München, where the Englishman took over from the Polish footballer. Now, the turn could come in Barcelona, where the England captain is emerging as the natural successor to the top culé scorer.
The operation fits into the club's plans, which seeks to strengthen its squad with proven stars, but without compromising the club's financial future. Waiting until 2026 would allow Kane to join at zero cost, although Barcelona doesn't rule out making a move earlier if the necessary conditions are met.
A bomb on the horizon
The arrival of Harry Kane would be a real game-changer for European soccer. Barcelona would finally secure the ideal replacement for Lewandowski and do so with a player who guarantees goals, leadership, and experience on the biggest stages. Hansi Flick's project is taking shape and Camp Nou is already dreaming of its new idol.
