Arsenal will reportedly look to sign 29-year-old German international Leroy Sane in the summer transfer window, but they will face stiff competition from Fenerbahce.
According to a report by Caught Offside, Leroy Sane is the subject of interest from Arsenal. The Bayern Munich winger faces an uncertain future at the Allianz Arena after entering the final month of his contract. Interestingly, the German international has received four written proposals, with Fenerbahce offering the most money.
As for Arsenal, the Gunners have also submitted their offer to Sane, and they hope to secure his services in a Bosman move in the summer transfer window. The former Manchester City winger prefers to join Arsenal, even though he will receive the most money from Fenerbahce.
Leroy Sane and his German journey
Leroy Sane has come leaps and bounds since joining Bayern Munich from Manchester City in a big-money move in July 2020. However, while the 29-year-old has shown flashes of brilliance in his stint with the Bavarian outfit, he has not been as consistent as he would have liked in the last half a decade.
The German international contributed to 19 goals in 45 appearances across all competitions by finding the back of the net 13 times and providing six assists. Meanwhile, Sane has entered the final month of his contract with Bayern Munich, and the situation has piqued the attention of several high-profile clubs, including Arsenal.
Premier League return on the horizon?
Arsenal’s interest in Leroy Sane is understandable. The Gunners are scouring the market for a wide attacker heading into the summer transfer window as they aim to reduce the over-dependence on Bukayo Saka in the final third. So, the Bayern Munich winger has emerged as a viable target for Arsenal.
Widespread reports have pointed to Arsenal being in the pole position to sign the former Manchester City winger in the summer transfer window. However, while the Gunners have submitted a written offer to Sane, he has proposals from three other clubs, with Fenerbahce giving him the most money.
While Fenerbahce and Galatasaray are competing with Arsenal for Sane’s signature, the 29-year-old German international prefers to join Arsenal. However, the former Manchester City winger wants more wages and will ask the Gunners to improve their offer.
