Leroy Sané will not receive an improve offer from Bayern Munich in his contract impasse just because he has hired a famously hard-nosed agent, head of sport Max Eberl said on Friday.
The Germany winger was left at the back of the queue by the German champions for new deals and could walk away for free in July at present.

Both parties have said they want an agreement but with the Bavarians trying to save money, something has to give despite the 29-year-old switching agents and recruiting top negotiator Pini Zahavi.
"Our wish would be to continue with Leroy," Eberl told a news conference.
"But at the same time, we have made it clear: we have a framework we want to operate within. If the framework were to be exceeded, then it would become very, very difficult. Now we are waiting to see what happens."
Eberl added that the club was surprised by the change of agent at this final stage of contract negotiations. However, he refrained from criticizing the player.

"There is no bad blood towards Leroy. If he feels that this is the decision he needs to make, then so be it. We have a very good relationship with both agents, the old one as well as the new one," Eberl added.
"We are trying to talk. We are very clear about this and have been from the start. We believe we are treating each other fairly. We hope he stays. If not, then we will move forward from there."
When asked about reports of a possible move for Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz, Eberl replied: "We have ideas and thoughts. We will see what can be implemented and realized. Then we will see how the squad looks for the Club World Cup (in June) and the new season (in August)."
