Leroy Sane out! Bayern Munich told to ditch Germany star after shock contract U-turn amid Arsenal and Chelsea interest

<p>Bayern are understood to have given <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/leroy-sane-ultimatum-arsenal-bayern-pressure-premier-league-return/blte254666c08b3377f#cs014782da377fb880" target="_blank">Sane a 10-day deadline</a> to put pen to paper on a proposed new three-year contract. The club has made it clear there will be no further negotiation: the current terms are final, with no room for added bonuses or a larger signing-on fee. Should the 28-year-old fail to comply within the window, Bayern are prepared to allow him to leave on a free transfer at the end of his current deal.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>If Sane does choose to move on, a return to the English Premier League seems highly likely. According to journalist Christian Falk, the former Manchester City star is keen to relocate to England, where he previously enjoyed great success under Pep Guardiola. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/contract-u-turn-leroy-sane-shocks-bayern-munich-arsenal-liverpool-target-makes-agent-change/bltf5bcdcc3ad3804a8" target="_blank">Sane’s new representative, Pini Zahavi,</a> is expected to approach Arsenal to assess the Gunners’ interest in reigniting talks for the German international. Chelsea are also reportedly watching closely as the Stamford Bridge club is in the midst of rebuilding their attacking line and may see Sane as an ideal option to add proven experience and creativity to their youthful squad.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Former Bayern and Germany midfielder Dietmar Hamann has weighed in on the situation, suggesting the club should not cave in to increasing demands.</p><p>In his column for <a href="https://sport.sky.de/fussball/artikel/didi-hamann-kolumne-ueber-bayern-sane-bvb-inter-psg-und-barca/13363795/34130" target="_blank"><em>Sky Sports</em></a><em>, </em>he wrote<em>: "</em>For a long time, it looked like a contract extension for Leroy Sane at FC Bayern, but then the player changed his agent and is demanding more money. He's welcome to change agents, but if something has already been negotiated, the club has to stand firm.</p><p>"What Bayern are experiencing now are the consequences of the exorbitant sums they have paid in recent months. Utopian demands from their agents were approved. There was a feeling that the club did not have the final say. FC Bayern must take back control! Therefore, now would be a good time to withdraw the offer for Sane."</p>

WHAT DIDI HAMANN SAID

<p>Sane joined Bayern from City in 2020, and during his time with the club, he has amassed an impressive record. In 218 appearances across all competitions, the winger has scored 61 goals and provided 54 assists. Despite his on-field contributions, Bayern now find themselves at a crossroads with Sane. With the club determined to reassert its authority in contract matters, the coming days will be critical in determining whether the player remains in Bavaria or seeks a fresh challenge abroad.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>While the Sane saga unfolds behind the scenes, Bayern will wrap up their home campaign on Saturday with a match against Borussia Monchengladbach at the Allianz Arena. The game will also serve as the occasion for the team to be officially crowned Bundesliga champions, with the trophy presentation scheduled post-match.</p>
