Leroy Sané rejects latest Bayern Munich contract; Galatasaray bound?
Sky Germany report that Leroy Sané will not extend his contract at Bayern Munich beyond the summer after rejecting a new deal from the Bundesliga champions.
According to Bild, Sané's new offer wasn't an improved salary, just a different payment structure. Bayern Munich's Max Eberl initially offered €10m plus €5m in bonuses before amending the contract to a fixed €12m salary and a further €3.5m attainable via bonuses, which doesn't meet the player's demands.

Now Sané is close to joining Turkish champions Galatasaray. Bild add that the 29-year-old won't play for Bayern Munich at the Club World Cup which kicks-off in a couple of days, while Fabrizio Romano adds that Galatasaray 'optimistic and confident' at completing a deal for the Germany international with negotiations with the player underway.
Sané – who also has an offer from Al-Hilal, per Florian Plettenberg – scored 11 goals and provided five assists in 30 Bundesliga appearances last season, his best tally in the Bundesliga so far.

'And we have to add goals, we have to add creativity, we have to add numbers and that will be in different positions.'
