Sane: I had a mini Guardiola in my ear telling me what to do at Man City!

Leroy Sane says Pep Guardiola spent so much time trying to improve him as a player, he ended up with ‘a little man in my ear’ telling him what to do on the pitch.

Media reports during his time at Manchester City often suggested Sane did not see eye-to-eye with Guardiola, but he insists the pair got on well.

Sane scored 39 goals in 135 games during his time at City, developing into one of the most dangerous wide players in the Premier League.
