Kane's Not Going Anywhere: Barcelona's Just Dreaming

Barcelona? Sure, Sky Sports News reports they’re 'exploring financing options' for a potential move. A lovely thought. But let's be real: Kane’s contentment in Munich, his family’s established life there, makes a move highly unlikely. That’s the long and short of it.

The man's an absolute goal machine since he hit Bavaria. Last season alone, he racked up an astonishing 61 club goals and seven assists across 51 appearances. Numbers like that? You'd have to go back to Cristiano Ronaldo in the 2014/15 campaign to find anything comparable. Kane also picked up his second European Golden Shoe and hauled in three trophies for the Bundesliga outfit, including the Bundesliga title and the DFB Pokal. Not too shabby.

His Bayern ledger reads 146 goals in 147 games. He's 33 and still operating at a ludicrous level. This season, he's already hit 70 goals for club and country. At the World Cup, he's notched three goals in three games, effortlessly surpassing Gary Lineker’s England World Cup goalscoring mark. Some players just get it done.

Everyone involved seems perfectly happy to put off any contract chatter until after the tournament. No surprise there. England will need their main man, and he’s expected to be front and center in their knockout phase efforts.
