Bayern Munich Finally Open Talks With Manchester City Over Proposed Leroy Sane Move

Bayern Munich have finally opened talks with Manchester City over a deal for Germany winger Leroy Sane.

The 23-year-old has impressed in his three years in the Premier League since joining from Schalke, and scored ten goals alongside providing 11 assists in the league last season.

However, he found his game time limited in the second half of the campaign, playing over 500 minutes less in the league compared to the previous season, as Bernardo Silva and Raheem Sterling established themselves as City's first choice wingers.

90min then learned that Sane was open to a move to Bayern, with the Bavarians having shown interest in taking him back to the Bundesliga to replace Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery, who left the club at the end of the 2018/19 season.
