Bayern Munich is supposed to be preparing for the Pokal final next Saturday against Bayer Leverkusen, but it seems that the Bavarian leadership is more focused on making a template for the next course that is really scary. The same day that the medical tests passed and he signed the goalkeeper Alexander Nübel (Schalke 04) and the central defender Tanguy Kouassi (PSG), the old and new German champion has closed the signing that he had been pursuing for more than a year: Leroy Sané, a German international in the ranks of Manchester City, will eventually become a new Bavarian player as this newspaper learned.

The winger at the prestigious Schalke 04 youth academy has signed until 2025 for a price well below what Bayern would have paid for him last summer. Negotiations with the player were already quite advanced and everything indicated that the operation would come to fruition in August 2019 until Sané suffered a partial tear of his cruciate ligament in the knee and the signing ended up twisting. Back then, there was talk of a price of around one hundred million euros, but the coronavirus and its effects on the market seem to have favored Bayern. It will be 49 million to the City plus 11 goals and 22 gross kilos a year for the player.
It should be noted that City was not in the business of doing business with a club that came to criticize it publicly on more than one occasion. Uli Hoeness, former president of Bayern, did not miss any opportunity to reduce the achievements of the English entity to the economic power of his sheik (“he just has to turn on the gas tap to sign”, he went on to say)But Sané's contract expiring in 2021, the player's drive to become a Bavarian footballer and the excellent negotiations carried out by agent Fali Ramadani ended up making the operation possible. Sané will say goodbye to Pepe Guardiola, former coach of Bayern, to put himself under the command of Hansi Flick and raise the level of an offensive section, with Lewandowski as jewel in the crown, even more.
