I thought Furuta telling Kaneki that the SBI had nothing to do with him and teasing him for thinking he was "special" was Ishida's way of dismissing the idea that anything was predestined. Ishida is in tune with the audience seems to occasionally use his characters as mouth pieces.

At most I can see Kaneki having ghoul blood in some way, although not related to the Washuus. Why some people can easily handle the Kakuhou Transplant Surgery is still somewhat of a mystery, so I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out that Kaneki has ghoul ancestry in some way. Not a 50-50, but perhaps a bit more diluted. Aside from Kaneki maybe having ghoul ancestry I really don't think there's much more. Kaneki's fate has always been treated as an event of circumstance and expanding on Kaneki's past to connect him to other important characters doesn't do much for his narrative. Plus, there are already several other confirmed Washuus running around whose ties are much more telling.
