Sane Has Rejected New Manchester City Contract – Guardiola
Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has said winger, Leroy Sane, has rejected to extend his stay at the club.
The 24-year-old winger had been linked to a return to Germany with Bayern Munich his destination. He has 12 months left on his contract and will leave for free after it runs out or if the club can find a buyer this summer.
“Leroy has rejected to extend his contract,” Guardiola told reporters on Friday.
“Everyone knows. If at the end of the season two clubs agree, he can leave. If not, he will leave at the end of his contract.
“The club offered two or three times and he rejected it.”
“When we make an offer to a player it’s because we want him,” Guardiola said at his pre-match press conference.
“He has a special quality. We want players who want to play with the club to achieve targets. He is a nice guy and I love him so much. I have nothing against — but he wants another adventure.”
Winger Sane, 24, has won the Premier League title twice at City since joining from Schalke in 2016. He last played for the team in August against Liverpool in the Community Shield, where he tore his knee ligament.
