Tottenham Hotspur have been offered the chance to sign Bayern Munich winger Leroy Sane, according to Santi Aouna of FootMercato.
It has been a disappointing season domestically for Spurs, one that has seen them lose 20 Premier League games at the time of writing. Were it not for the bottom three, who have already been condemned to the drop, Spurs would be in a genuine relegation battle, something which would’ve been unthinkable at the season’s opening.
Such form, along with exits from both domestic cups, has seen pressure mount on manager Ange Postecoglou as the season has progressed. His only saving grace thus far has been the Europa League, in which Spurs have played like a different side compared to their Premier League form.
Spurs are set to play Manchester United in the Europa League final as they hope to end their 17-year trophy drought. Unsurprisingly, however, eyes are already on the upcoming summer transfer window and it appears that the Lilywhites are keen to reinforce their attacking options.
Sane Offered To Spurs
Winger set to depart Bayern Munich
FootMercato’s Santi Aouna has reported that Leroy Sane has been “proposed to many clubs in the United Kingdom,” including Tottenham Hotspur. Though the winger had agreed terms with Bayern on a new contract, there has since been a u-turn, with no extension yet agreed. Given there is such a disparity between what both parties want, a departure is expected. Bayern, in fact, want an answer from Sane's camp about his future "before the end of the week."
Sane, who earns £325,000 per week according to Capology, has been with Bayern for five years at the time of writing, having moved to Bavaria from Manchester City back in 2020. The summer signing of Michael Olise, and the form he would go on to showcase, has only given Sane further competition at Munich, along with the likes of Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry.
In Tottenham, Sane would be moving to a club that are not only in the Premier League, a division he knows well, but one that needs some depth out wide, with it looking unlikely that Spurs sign Timo Werner on a permanent basis.
Spurs may find that Champions League qualification, should they win the Europa League, would offer them a major advantage in the race for the signature of Sane, who has been described as "world-class" by Germany boss Julian Nagelsmann. In Sane, the North London side would be signing a brilliant winger, when fit, within the prime years of his career.
