The 32-year-old is enjoying a successful tournament with England, having already netted three times in as many games in the group stage.

He also enjoyed a stellar season with Bayern Munich, but it was widely expected he would return to the Premier League if he was to ever leave the German champions.

But it has since emerged he could become a target Barcelona, who also signed England team-mate Anthony Gordon earlier in the transfer window.

Nou Camp bosses have already been in contact with Kane’s camp to make their interest known, the Daily Mail reports.

It is believed the La Liga winners are exploring ways to finance a move for the striker, who only has one year left on his Bayern contract.

His agents are said to have shut down the speculation, but Barcelona are expected to revisit the situation.

Kane became his country's all-time World Cup goalscorer in Saturday's 2-0 win over Panama 2-0 to finish top of the group and secure a knockout place against DR Congo on Wednesday.

Despite Saturday win, England's match in the MetLife stadium also wasn't without fault, and with bigger tests to follow, improvements will be required if they are to return to MetLife Stadium for the final next month.

Kane described the first half as "a little bit sloppy" in his post-match interview but manager Thomas Tuchel took a more upbeat approach after the game.

The German said: "Good, good performance again, everyone did what they needed to do."

England finished top of Group L, with Croatia in second, Ghana in third and Panama in fourth.
