Sane talks about FCB – and yet says nothing

Speculative object Leroy Sane has broken his silence, but has not revealed anything about his plans for the future. “I’m going on vacation now, and then you’ll see everything else,” said the national player who was courted by FC Bayern Munich after the 8:0 (5:0) in the European Championship qualifier against Estonia in Mainz about a possible transfer to the German record champion.

The 23-year-old responded to the question of whether the Munichers could hope with a smile and the sentence: “That was it for the Bayern questions. Thank you.”

Instead, the scorer raved about the rejuvenated DFB team to 8-0 (88th). “It was very, very much fun kicking with the boys. Everyone can see that something is happening.” Although “not everything works perfectly yet, but the development is very, very good. The young players must go ahead and can no longer hide behind the older ones.”

Bavaria professional Leon Goretzka stressed that he would be “very happy” if his former Schalke buddy Sane came from Manchester City. “He is a very good friend and would help us with our sports. I showed him that that would be a good move for him.”

Sanes City colleague Ilkay Gündogan opposed it. “Leroy likes me very much and wants to enjoy playing with me for a few more years,” he said with a smile. But no matter what Sane decides, the attacker is “on a very, very good path. It is to be granted him that he is successful – no matter where.”
