Even after his second season at FC Bayern, Leroy Sané has not really arrived.
But the winger seems to be very popular at Arsenal.
Munich/London – Leroy Sané is entering his third season at Bayern Munich.
So far, he has not been able to meet the high expectations.
In the new season, the national player should bring his quality to the pitch, otherwise the bosses could possibly lose patience, as
tz.de
reports.
A farewell to Munich before the end of the transfer deadline on September 1 is reportedly not being considered.
But does that also apply if an adequate offer arrives?
At least the general conditions for Sané have not become easier.
Sadio Mané has been signed, Serge Gnabry has extended and Jamal Musiala is in superb form.
FC Bayern: Arsenal are said to be dealing with Leroy Sané
Arsenal FC, for example, is said to have a great interest in the winger, especially in the English media.
According to CBS reporter Ben Jacobs, the Premier League club had been interested in Leroy Sané for some time, well before Raphinha's signing fell through.
He told the sports portal
GiveMeSport
.
The reporter pointed out that those responsible for Arsenal were aware that it would be difficult to tear Sané away from Bayern.
But after the basket from preferred candidate Raphinha, a new dynamic could come into play.
The transfer expert Fabrizio Romano
also assumed that Sanés would
stay at Bayern Munich.
However, he did not want to rule out a change towards the end of August.
Sané Real Madrid are said to have been offered in July.

Squad planner Edú Gaspar hints at further transfers
Arsenal FC has already strengthened significantly in the summer.
Marquinhos, Fabio Vieira, Matt Turner, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus have been signed by Manchester City for a total of 139 million euros.
But that doesn't seem to mean the end of transfer activity yet.
Arsenal technical director Edú Gaspar gave a telling interview to
football.london
at the end of July.
In it he said something like: "We have a plan for every single player in the squad and that's why I said that there is still a lot to do in this transfer window because we have to balance the squad as best we can.
Things can happen.
We have to be really focused and prepared for every single situation, there might be chances."

The two know each other well from the time they were employed together at Manchester City.

Sané once raved about him in the
Independent
: "I can only say positive things about Mikel Arteta.
He helped me a lot on the pitch.
He tried to improve my football, he told me what I did well and what I did wrong and he tried to work on it."
