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

[waspish]

Massive risk to let him go this late on in the transfer window with no replacement.

Hey?

Yes.....and a very good one.
Previously Leroy has intimated that his where he gets his balance from when dribbling at speed. :-)

Yes , he has a very balanced and graceful way of movement.

I don't know where on earth people have got the idea from that Bayern will stump up £120m or so.

Until this summer the most they'd ever spent was £37m. I just cannot see them spending that on Sané. I mean, he's great and has huge potential, but it's potential which may or may not be realised and £125m (let alone £137m) is silly money. They'd be mad to blow that and they are not mad.

Nobody has the idea that Bayern will pay, it's what we have told them we want.

Latest from Sam Lee from athletic q&a

"Sane has one foot out of City, he’s told the players he wants to go, and he has a huge offer that City simply cannot (well, will not) match. It’s about £360k per week! The only thing left is for Bayern to agree a fee with City, and City want “Dembele money”. And so they should. City are working on a CB but it’s not massively likely, as it would also need Otamendi to go (foreign quota). Danilo/Cancelo is nearly done, as you’ll have seen. Been told it could be finalised tonight (but announcement is at the mercy of the clubs)."

That's why Pep said the situation has changed a bit then, but still doesn't mean anything until Bayern can match City's valuation of Sane, so nothing changed much as Pep said really.

Sorry, @SebastianBlue, but that doesn't quite scan. That's why we won't be getting him.

And people say music isn’t a powerful force for change!

How much can you see them spending?

Starting to think this is a win win for us. He stays and we’ve got a very good player who could become great. He goes for anything over £125m and we’ve got some serious money to reinvest in areas that are much more needed than the wing.
My only issue is this being dragged out like it has.

the final price unfortunately is between what they think is a good price and 137m. If we get 100m pounds thats lucky. Imo e should accept anything loer than 120m in todays market.

I kinda like the Spanish model, as if we would like to get Sane now and he would be an Atletico, Bilbao etc player we would have to match the fixed buyout price and thats the start and end of the negotiating. No saga, no nothing, pay up the buyout clause or fuck off.

Like with Laporte and Rodri, we knew whats the price and e had no option to negotiate a cheaper deal.

Bayern are really desperate to sign Sane, they might agree to pay 120m on the last day of the window but I'm certain they won't agree to pay 137m and almost certain that they won't go above 125m. Basically, there won't be a deal unless we reduce the asking price.
