'We want him to stay' - Guardiola says decision is up to Sane

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is hopeful last season's treble winners can add another centre back before the new season starts while also admitting that he hopes to see Leroy Sane remain with the club.

The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich manager addressed speculation surrounding the future of the German winger, who has been linked with Bayern Munich for a majority of the summer.

Former Germany star Lothar Matthaus says that he believes Sane can be the new face of Bayern Munich, while Guardiola has already stated that he thinks Sane's career would best be served by staying at City and is hoping to keep hold of the winger if possible.
