Deal agreed with Bayern Munich for Leroy Sane - €60m (including add-ons)

[Centurions]

Has he said he wants to leave?



Yep, sense of entitlement they think they just need to flutter their eyelashes and he will come running.

Sane is still a young man, getting to grips with parenthood and now getting to grips with a serious injury. I couldn't blame him for thinking about the prospect of moving back to his country of birth to a club where he will be feted. Time doesn't stand still.

He gave every indication of wanting to move before his injury and possibly before he knew he was going to become a daddy. If he goes, so be it. As a club we'll move on and wish him well, stuff Bayern though.

Did he? I don't really recall it being like that.

 

[Coatigan]

You think a club like Bayern would spend the last 6 months praising Sane and cooing him at every opportunity if he was not interested?

Yes

I guess his value will be affected by how he recovers from this lay off

was mainly talking about before his injury, but he is going to make a full recovery and is still only 23 so would go on to play for munich for another 10 years and more, so work out how much munich value him both on and off the field and with sponsors and media rights and the golden boy of German football, its a blank check they would write having sane playing for them and the market value would double over night for sane if they signed him for £90million from city, they know they are taking the piss with that offer and if sane was a munich player that manchester city wanted you think they would let us sign him on the cheap

something stinks if you ask me and sane wanting to use a germany doctor and medical staff ? and not using the man city medical staff we have always used in Barcelona. the injury and recovery is questioned if they are letting other medical staff do it and who is looking after the whole recovery, is there a deal in place with munich and city and our hands was tied in saying how the whole injury and surgery is done

I guess there is no smoke without fire but re your quote of he will make a full recovery, I think we need to see him playing before we can deduce that

Fuck Bayern, put him on the open market if he wants to leave, he may not want to go anywhere else but it will piss Bayern off and inflate the price .....

He's absolutely desperate to play at the Euros next year, we do have some leverage should Bayern attempt to low ball us in January.

Sane would have to weigh up sitting on the bench at City until the summer at least. We are under no pressure in January to sell and know more clubs next summer would be in the equation, as do Bayern.

Even if Germany did selected a half-fit Sane for the Euros, his price could rocket if he does anything of note.

With two years left next summer, we would probably hold a whip hand until January 2021.

According to transfermarkt his contract expires June 2021, (ie one year next summer), I have found them generally very reliable with contract stuff.

The talk all summer was he only had 2 years left so 2021 sounds right. Been thinking though if fit how many minutes do we think he would have played so far this season, and at whose expense?

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

We're not selling Sane. I dont think wants to go tbh, there's been no agitation on his part, nothing in the media, just Bayern spouting shite.. I really dont think he is going in January especially!

You are correct mate, got my timelines confused. Scrub Jan 2021!
