Barça, 150 million for Harry Kane, is this a scary offer for its

Against Dortmund, Harry Kane wasn't just a number 9. He was everywhere: as a 6 to regain possession, as an 8 to orchestrate play and as a 10 to deliver precise passes.

With 48 goals this season, the Englishman is dominating Europe and has left Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland behind in the race for the "Golden Boot".

However, in 2023, the risk seemed great. Spending almost 100 million euros on a thirty-year-old? Even within himself, the doubt remained. "Many thought: 100 million, that's crazy. Me too, actually," Uli Hoeness openly admitted at an event at the Frankfurt School of Finance.

"Today, I would buy it for 150 million"

But skepticism has given way to boundless admiration. For Hoeness, Kane has become an absolute role model. So much so that his market value, according to him, has increased significantly: "Today, I would buy him for 150 million," he declared.

This statement is not insignificant. It comes as FC Barcelona, ​​​​in search of a world-class successor to Robert Lewandowski, who will turn 38 in August, are keeping a close eye on the captain of the "Three Lions".

The problem is that Kane's famous release clause, valued at 65 million for the summer of 2026, has already expired.

With a contract until 2027, the Englishman is more closely linked than ever to Bayern Munich, who are even keen to extend his stay. With Hoeness's stratospheric financial demands and Barcelona's precarious financial situation, the gap now seems insurmountable.

Barça were hoping for a good deal, but instead find themselves facing a treasure trove with a starting price of 150 million euros.
