Official—Nike Forces Laporta to Take Him from Bayern: Neither Kimmich nor Musiala

Barça has just completed one of the craziest signings of the year at Nike's express request

FC Barcelona Continues Planning Its Future. With Hansi Flick on top, the team has regained its best version and is once again competitive in all competitions.

In LaLiga, the fight for the title remains open, with the blaugranas fighting for every point. In the Champions League, the team has already secured its presence in the round of 16 with ease. Additionally, in Copa del Rey, it is preparing for a crucial semifinal clash.

Despite the good performance, the management is not satisfied. Joan Laporta and Deco are working on strengthening the squad with strategic players. Barça needs to incorporate talent without jeopardizing its financial stability.

Now, Flick has identified a key reinforcement. His target is not Kimmich or Musiala, but another star from Bayern Munich.

Kimmich and Musiala: Impossible Transfers

For months, Joshua Kimmich has been strongly linked to the blaugrana offices. The German midfielder is highly regarded at Camp Nou, but his signing is complicated. Bayern demands more than 70 million euros for his transfer.

Musiala has also been on Barça's radar; his young age, talent, and ability to disrupt make him an ideal player. However, his price is a huge obstacle. Bayern doesn't want to let him go and is already working on his renewal.

In this scenario, Flick has decided to change strategy. He has set his sights on another footballer from the Bavarian team. An experienced player, with goals, who can provide an immediate quality boost.

Nike Boosts the New Signing

Barça is no longer in the economic crisis of a few years ago. The arrival of new sponsors has improved the financial situation.

Nike has been key in this process. The sports brand has renewed its contract with the club and paid a bonus of between 100 and 150 million euros. This allows Barça to consider top-level signings without compromising its economic viability.

Laporta and Deco know they must seize this opportunity, and Flick is sure about it. There is a star at Bayern who would fit perfectly into his project. Harry Kane, the forward Flick wants for Barça

The English forward is Bayern's top scorer and one of the best "9s" in the world. So far this season, he has played 29 matches, scored 29 goals, and provided 10 assists: an impressive performance. Flick knows Kane well, he knows that his scoring ability, leadership, and experience at the elite level make him a strategic signing.

The key to the operation lies in his contract; in 2026, Kane will have a release clause of only 65 million euros. This is an opportunity that Barça doesn't want to miss. Laporta and Deco are already analyzing how to tackle the operation; the arrival of the Englishman would provide the team with a top-level reinforcement in attack.

A Bet to Win Titles

Barça continues to grow under Flick's leadership. The arrival of Kane would be another step in the team's reconstruction.

The club is looking for an offensive reference for the coming years. Lewandowski remains key, but his age forces them to think about the future. Kane, despite turning 33 in 2026, remains one of the most decisive forwards in Europe.

Flick has already made his desire clear. Now, the management is working to make it a reality.

The coming months will be decisive. Barça has the opportunity to sign a top-level scorer. With Nike's support, the operation can become a reality.
