A signature -fed contract is ready, but Leroy Sané hesitates. Obviously, there is still considerable clarification needs in the salary and possible premiums.

Leroy Sané is still facing a decision: does he extend at Bayern or not? Although the framework conditions for a common future should already be coordinated, the wing player has so far rejected an agreement – supposedly also because of a lack of special payment.

According to the Pay TV broadcaster Sky, Sané should earn 14 to 15 million euros annually through the negotiated working paper-and therefore less than before. However, it is more crucial for the international that the offer does not provide for hand money. Apparently a reason for Sané not to sign.

On Saturday, shortly before the game at RB Leipzig (3: 3), sports director Max Eberl was optimistic about an extension: “We are in good and targeted conversations, but the signature is still missing,” said the Munich: “We are not quite there yet. We would like to do it, Leroy too – now we have to cope.”

Only a little later, the situation seems much more process. According to information from Sport1, the club’s final offer has been on the table for some time – nothing has changed since then. The association also does not plan to adapt the conditions.

However, the change of consultation could bring movement to discussions: Sané has recently been represented by Pini Zahavi – an agent who has already caused a stir in negotiations with major clubs in the past.

The new constellation also puts a lot to the test internally at Bayern. As the “Bild” reported on Monday, Bayern want Sané to decide within the next ten days whether he wants to stay in Munich or not. In addition, the existing offer should not be increased.

The responsible persons refer to a clear salary strategy: According to Sport1, no bonus payments for an extension are provided for players who sign a second or third contract with the German record champions. Joshua Kimmich was also affected. However, there are exceptions within the association: According to the report, Jamal Musiala and Alphonso Davies are said to have received premiums, contrary to the regulation.
