Report: Tottenham player could be a Barcelona target next summer

The Athletic have revealed that Barcelona would be among the clubs interested in Harry Kane next summer should the striker run down his contract at Tottenham.

The article details the game of poker that is currently underway between Kane, Tottenham and Bayern Munich, explaining that the German champions are ‘strongly of the impression’ that Kane wants to join them right now.

However, it is explained that the striker has the option of running his contract down and leaving on a free transfer next summer, in which case he will not only get a bigger financial package but also have a lot more options to choose from.

The report states that Barcelona and several Premier League clubs would be keen on signing the 29-year-old if he was available on a free in 12 months.

The Athletic claim that the feeling around the industry at the moment is that Tottenham would not want to lose him on a free, with the North London club hoping to either tie him down to a new contract or sell him for a hefty fee to Bayern this summer.

If it is true that Levy and the Spurs hierarchy have decided to sell Kane this summer if he does not sign a new contract (which would be the sensible thing to do), then the likelihood is that he will end up joining Bayer.

One would hope that the situation is sorted out quickly so that Postecoglou and the club have enough time to secure suitable replacements.
