Leroy Sane<\/a> and Bayern Munich<\/a> have been linked together for several months now with the German reportedly edging closer and closer to a move back to his home country. According to the David McDonnell of the Daily Mirror<\/a>, Sane’s representatives have stepped up their efforts to secure a big-money move to Bayern Munich in the summer. The Bundesliga<\/a> champions are reportedly prepared to offer as high as \u00a370 million for the 24-year-old.<\/span><\/p>\n

Persistent Chase<\/h3>\n

The transfer was looking set to be taking place last summer before Sane’s injury ultimately prevented the move. Bayern, however, never gave up in their pursuit for the Manchester City<\/a> winger. Now, they are preparing to make a move for the German in the next summer transfer window. It’s a move that would make sense for both parties.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Manchester City<\/a> would be getting the funds for potential defensive reinforcements. Meanwhile, the Bundesliga champions would be getting the next piece to their rebuild of, forming a team packed with young talent. Sane would be joining forces with the likes of Alphonso Davies<\/a>, making for a deadly partnership down the Bayern left.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sane’s representatives have stated that the German see’s a move to Bayern Munich as the chance to realise his dream of winning the Champions League<\/a>, saying<\/a>: “There he sees the prerequisites for achieving his big goal of winning the Champions League.”<\/span><\/p>\n

With Manchester City’s Champions League ban on the horizon, a move away from the Citizens would make sense for Sane, and perhaps many other star players looking to realise their European dreams. The loss of the 24-year-old in the summer could prove to be pivotal for both clubs at either end of the deal, with Bayern Munich maintaining dominance in Germany, and Manchester City gaining much-needed funds for reinforcements at the back.<\/span><\/p>\n
