After weeks of negotiations, Leroy Sané is said to have decided against FC Bayern. However, there is still a detail to clarify.

The decision about the future of Leroy Sané has apparently been made. As the TV broadcaster Sky reports, the 29-year-old has rejected a new contract for Bavaria and will definitely leave the club. The “Bild” newspaper also reports that at least the signs of Sané will be left to the German record champions.

According to the report, Bayern still have to discuss what effects this has on the club World Cup. For the time being, the winger will probably not travel to the USA. The Bayern team had already broken into the States on Tuesday. However, the German international, who were still active at the Nations League final Four, have not yet been there and are supposed to travel. This also includes Sané.

The “picture” already reports that Sané will definitely not travel to the USA. Sané’s contract expires at the end of June, i.e. during the tournament. Most recently, there was also a short -term extension of the working paper until the end of the competition.

As Sky reports, Sané has already achieved a verbal agreement with Galatasaray Istanbul about a change. The last details should now be negotiated in Istanbul. There was probably also interest from Galatasaray’s city rivals Fenerbahçe and from England. The offer of Fenerbahçe is said to have even been financially more lucrative, but Galatasaray probably prevails.

According to Sky, the club is said to have been the prospect who has invested the most in a Sané transfer in the past few weeks. So there are said to have been on telephone calls, meetings and written offers. According to the transfer insiders Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein, Sané in Istanbul signs a contract for three years. Ornstein also reports of an annual salary of up to 15 million euros.

According to the “Bild”, a motivation for Sané’s Bayern party could be that the Munich team does not improve their contract, but instead only have changed the distribution of the salary. The sports director Max Eberl initially offered the player 10 million euros annual fixed salary and 5 million euros possible bonuses. The “improved” offer is said to have included 12 million euros in fixed content and 3.5 million euros in bonus payments. Sky confirmed the numbers.
