The 29-year-old has reportedly turned down an improved extension offer from Bayern and will now explore opportunities elsewhere.
Sané and Bayern had been in advanced talks over a new deal and were close to an agreement until the winger changed course, switching representation to super-agent Pini Zahavi.
The German international joined Bayern from Manchester City in 2020 for a reported fee of €49 million.
Since then, he has made 220 appearances for the club, scoring 61 goals and providing 55 assists.

Tom Cleverley in advanced talks to be Plymouth Argyle head coach
Plymouth Argyle are in advanced talks to appoint Tom Cleverley as their new head coach. Plymouth — who will play in League One next season following relegation from the Championship — have been seeking a replacement for Miron Muslic, who joined German second division side Schalke last month. Muslic, who led Plymouth to the FA Cup fifth round including a fourth-round victory over Liverpool, had himself only been appointed in January to replace Wayne Rooney. Advertisement In May, Cleverley parted company with Watford, his first managerial position, at the end of the 2024-25 campaign after 14 months in charge. The former midfielder won 20 of his 59 matches in charge at Vicarage Road, with the club finishing 14th in the Championship last season — 11 points off the play-offs for promotion to the Premier League and eight points clear of relegation. The 35-year-old — who was capped 13 times for England — retired from playing at the end of the 2022-23 season and had coached Watford's Under-18 team prior to coaching the first-team following the dismissal of Valerien Ismael. Cleverley made 146 appearances across seven seasons at Watford, having previously played for Manchester United, Wigan Athletic, Aston Villa and Everton in the Premier League. ()
