'He's had a LOT of problems': Bayern Munich would be making a big mistake signing 'inconsistent' and 'withdrawn' Leroy Sane from Manchester City, insists club legend Willy Sagnol

Bayern Munich have been urged to think twice about signing Leroy Sane by club legend Willy Sagnol, who has described the Manchester City forward as 'inconsistent' and 'withdrawn'.

The Bundesliga champions have been long-term admirers of the City winger and tried to sign him last summer before an anterior cruciate ligament injury in August derailed the move.

Sagnol, the former Bayern full-back who had a spell as interim manager for the Bundesliga giants, says it would be a significant gamble from his old club to sign the 24-year-old.

'He doesn't correspond at all to Bayern in terms of his character,' Sagnol told RMC of the 24-year-old.
