Liverpool has identified potential contenders to replace Mohamed Salah at Anfield.
The man called Leroy Sane
If Leroy Sane does not agree to sign a new deal at the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich will reportedly put him ‘up for sale’ this summer.
The forward’s current contract expires in 2025, and negotiations with his entourage are underway to establish a new arrangement.
Sane is one of Bayern‘s highest-paid players, but he has struggled for form recently and is failing to justify his wages.
The Germany international has eight goals and 11 assists in 25 league outings, but his last goal came in October, raising concerns behind the scenes at the Bundesliga club.
Bayern are seeking to restructure their compensation structure this summer, which is why there is reluctance to pay Sane more.
Top teams around Europe are keeping a careful eye on Sane‘s predicament, with sides in England and Spain rumoured to be interested in signing the former Manchester City star.
And his pursuers may be encouraged by Bayern‘s stance on their No. 10.
According to The Mirror, the Bundesliga club is’ready to sell’ Sane this summer if he does not sign a new contract with them within the next few months.
Bayern do not want to risk a great player entering the last 12 months of their contract with the club, which would see their value
Bayern do not want to risk losing a top player in the final 12 months of their contract, which would considerably reduce their value.
Liverpool had previously been connected with Sane, and the 28-year-old is one of their contenders to replace Mohamed Salah if he decides to leave Anfield.
The forward can play on both flanks as well as through the middle and is eager to return to the Premier League.
The Merseyside club will be anxiously anticipating the conclusion of Sane’s showdown discussions with Bayern, which are scheduled for the coming weeks.
During those meetings, a decision on his future is expected to be made, which will shape how Bayern conducts their transfer business in the coming window.
Max Eberl, the newly hired Bayern CEO, recently discussed Sane’s condition, saying:
“Leroy has tremendous qualities, but he also has oscillations from time to time.
We must make a decision together: what does he desire, and what are his future plans? Does he want to travel into the future with us and make a difference? In general, it’s all about dedication.”
