Sane done €60m Bayern Munich contract as Man City let German winger head home
The highly-rated forward, who had spent four seasons at the Etihad Stadium, has signed a five-year contract with the Bundesliga champions.
Leroy Sane has completed a move to Bayern Munich from Manchester City that would be worth up to €60 million (£55m/$67m).
The 24-year-old winger, who had spent four seasons at the Etihad Stadium, has signed a five-year contract with the Bundesliga champions.
A switch to the Allianz Arena for Sane had been within the pipeline for a few time, with Bayern first making their interest known during the summer of 2019.
An untimely injury scuppered those plans, with a significant knee problem picked up during a Community Shield clash with Liverpool.
Sane has, however, worked his way back to full fitness and can now be returning to his homeland to open subsequent chapter in his career.
He has told Bayern’s official website: “FC Bayern may be a great club with big goals - and these goals suit me also . I'm looking forward to the new challenge and can't wait to coach with the team.
“I know Hansi Flick from the U21 national team, we had a really good relationship there. i would like to win as many trophies as possible with FC Bayern, and therefore the Champions League is that the top priority.”
Bayern’s CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said on acquiring the services of a top target: “We’re very happy to welcome Leroy Sane to FC Bayern.
