Published on May 6, 2020, Bayern Munich are reportedly set to sign Manchester City's Germany winger Leroy Sane on a five-year deal.
According to Sport Bild, Bayern Munich have agreed on a transfer with Manchester City winger Leroy Sane, but the fee is still to be negotiated.
The 24-year-old has not played for City's first team since tearing his right knee ligament last August in the FA Community Shield match win over Liverpool at Wembley.
Having joined from Schalke in 2016 for a reported fee of £37 million, Sane is under contract in Manchester until 2021.
Bayern's director of sport Hasan Salihamidzic and board member Oliver Kahn want to pay 40 million euros - half of Sane's estimated market value.
However, Manchester City need to generate income from transfers to comply with financial fair-play regulations, having been banned from the Champions League for the next two seasons due to violations.
