National player Leroy Sané returns to the Bundesliga and changes to Bayern Munich. The report “Guardian” and the “Bild” newspaper, which refers to the environment of ex-Bayern coach Pep Guardiola. He is said to have signed a contract with the record master until 2025. The transfer fee is less than 50 million euros.
The Bavarians have been working on the striker’s commitment for a year, last summer there was a transfer fee of more than 100 million euros. However, since Sané contracted a cruciate ligament at the beginning of August 2019 and was only under contract with Manchester until 2021, the purchase price of the 24-year-old, who celebrated his comeback on June 22 in the Guardiola team, decreased.
Sané joined City from Schalke 04 in 2016 and won two Premier League, one FA Cup and two League Cups. He has scored 39 goals in a total of 135 appearances.
No Champions League with Sané
Sané is said to have been in agreement with FC Bayern for a long time, most recently it was about details. City coach Guardiola recently confirmed that the winger had rejected a new contract from City and wanted to leave the club. City is said to have little interest in Sané contesting the rest of the Champions League season in August. For FC Bayern, however, he would only be eligible to play in the new season.
Sané should thus become the second most expensive purchase in the Bundesliga. Only Bayern’s central defender Lucas Hernandez was more expensive at around € 80 million when he changed last year. After goalkeeper Alexander Nübel from FC Schalke 04, Sané is the second entry for the coming season. In addition, the change of the French defense talent Tanguy Kouassi, 18, from Paris Saint-Germain is imminent.
FC Bayern could not be reached in the evening to comment. According to dpa information, Sané consultant Damir Smoljan was seen in Munich on Tuesday. He is said to have been in town for talks with the club.
