Leroy Sane is set to snub a return to the Premier League and has reached a ‘verbal agreement’ with Galatasaray.
The former Manchester City winger sparked a transfer frenzy earlier this month after opting to leave Bayern Munich as a free agent.
Sane was inundated with offers but is now, according to Sky Germany, on the verge of signing a multi-year deal worth between £8.47million and £10.16m.
The 29-year-old’s agent, Pini Zahavi, had been conducting talks with a number of leading European clubs, including the likes of Arsenal and Tottenham.
Mikel Arteta is desperate to bolster his forward line this summer and had reportedly been keen to reunite with Sane having worked with him during their time together at City.

Spurs, too, were credited with a strong interest while, in recent days, Al-Hilal had emerged as suitors.
Sane is, however, on the cusp of signing for the Turkish giants and officiallybringing down the curtain on his five-year spell at the Allianz Arena.
Bayern, for their part, had been keen on agreeing fresh terms with Sane but were not prepared to break their wage structure to do so.
Having made his final decision, Sane will leave before Bayern jet out to America for the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.
