Tottenham keen on Bayern foward Leroy Sane
Tottenham Hotspur are considering a move for Bayern Munich winger Leroy Sane (h/t Foot Mercato). The German star has been with Bayern since 2020 and has played a major role in their recent domestic success. Advertisement Tottenham had a disappointing Premier League campaign in 2024/25, finishing 17th in the table. However, their Europa League success helped them secure a spot in the Champions League for next season, saving what could have been a terrible campaign. Manager Ange Postecoglou is now focused on building a better squad that can compete at the top level again. The club is expected to invest heavily this summer, particularly in the attacking positions, and Sane has emerged as a key target to strengthen their forward line. Sane weighing up summer transfer window options Sane's contract situation at Bayern has drawn attention from top clubs across Europe. The 29-year-old winger has received a new offer from Bayern, who want to keep him for longer. Advertisement He has attracted interest from Saudi Pro League clubs and teams in other parts of Europe. Tottenham are in the race but may face competition from local rivals Arsenal, who have also been linked with the former Manchester City player. Sane finished the season with 13 goals and six assists in all competitions. His creativity, pace and experience would be valuable to any club in need of attacking reinforcements. With several clubs now circling, Sane must make a key decision on where he wants to play next season.

Leroy Sane given new contract offer as Arsenal target free transfer
Leroy Sane will be out of contract with Bayern Munich on June 30 and Arsenal are said to be among the clubs eyeing a swoop for the former Manchester City winger Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing Leroy Sane on a free transfer, but Bayern Munich are hoping to persuade the winger to sign a new deal. Sane will be out of contract on June 30 and has yet to make a decision about his future. Arsenal are in the market for attacking reinforcements this summer and the club's co-chairman, Josh Kroenke, has vowed to back Mikel Arteta in the transfer market. "We plan to invest to get behind winning and doing better next season," Kroenke said. "We're delighted we have our sporting director, Andrea [Berta], who will play an important role in this. He is part of a unified and strong team, supported by the board, who are crystal clear on exactly what we need to do and the way in which we want to do it. The right way. The Arsenal way." And according to a report from Sky Germany, Arsenal are among the clubs eyeing a move for Sane. The 29-year-old has plenty of Premier League experience, having won the title twice during his time at Manchester City. He also worked with Arteta at City, with the Gunners boss spending more than three years at the Etihad as Pep Guardiola's assistant. However, the report states that Bayern have now tabled an improved contract offer in a bid to persuade Sane to stay. Sane's agent, Pini Zahavi, was recently seen having dinner with Bayern's sporting director Max Eberl and said: "We had a very good dinner, it was a nice dinner, I enjoyed it. But no news. I cannot speak about it, but it was a nice meeting." The report adds that Bayern have offered Sane a 'slightly higher fixed salary' than their previous contract offer, which would have seen the forward earn around €10m (£8.4m) plus €5.5m (£4.6m) in bonuses. "We have a very good relationship with his old and new management," Eberl said earlier this month. "It was surprising for us. We'll see what happens. We thought it was so close. But we'll see, we'll speak to each other. "Our wish is to extend Leroy's contract, we've communicated that to him. But we have our limits. If the limits are exceeded, then it will be very difficult. Let's see what happens. Until the deal is finalized, nothing can be said. "We have a clear idea and thought we were on the right track. Of course, we're talking to the new agency. There's no bad blood; the players are free to make their own decisions. "Leroy's performances in recent weeks have been very good; he's shown that he's committed to Bayern Munich. We hope he will extend, and if not, we'll move on as well.

Arsenal teased by Leroy Sane 'contract update' after German's agent sits down with Bayern Munich chiefs - but 'two other Premier League giants' are keen on free transfer
Arsenal have been dealt a potential blow in their pursuit of Leroy Sane after his agent gave an upbeat update on contract talks with Bayern Munich. The winger's contract expires this summer and his agent Pini Zahavi has reportedly been speaking with Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham over a Premier League return, as per BILD. Sane joined Bayern from Manchester City for £55million in 2020 but has been linked with a move away for some time and has reportedly been spending time in London with his wife Candice. He was once again an important cog in the Bayern machine this season as he scored 13 goals, made six assists, and helped them reclaim the Bundesliga title. And his agent Zahavi has told Sky Germany of a seemingly positive contract update talks, saying: 'We had a very good dinner, it was a nice dinner, I enjoyed it. But no news. 'I cannot speak about it, but it was a nice meeting.' Bayern are said to be insistent on not wanting to increase their current offering to Sane, which is made up of a fixed salary of €10million (£8.3million), plus a variable bonus of €5.5million (£4.6million). However, key figures within the club, including sporting director Max Eberl, are said to be willing to pay that sum in order to keep him on their books. As a result, Bayern are thought to be considering increasing his fixed salary up to €13 million (£10.9million) and reducing the bonuses accordingly. While Premier League sides are reportedly keen on landing Sane, Turkish Super Lig side Galatasaray have also tabled an offer worth €10million per year to Sane. The German winger will have to make a decision over a potential new destination quickly, with Bayern wanting his future resolved prior to Bayern the club's departure for the Club World Cup on June 10. Sane was an integral part of Manchester City's 'Centurions' team in 2017-18 before he helped the club to win a domestic treble - including a second successive Premier League title - the following campaign. However, he endured a fraught end to his time in Manchester after suffering a torn ACL before joining Bayern in the summer of 2020.

Tottenham Hotspur Are In The Running To Land This Bayern Munich Ace: Decent Fit For Spurs?
In a recent report, Bild mentioned that Tottenham Hotspur are in the running to land Bayern Munich ace Leroy Sane. However, it is understood that Spurs are facing competition in the form of Arsenal and Chelsea in the race to land the German attacker. Sane's Recent Season At Bayern Sane managed to catch the eye at times but struggled to be consistent for Bayern Munich last season. The 29-year-old registered 13 goals and grabbed six assists in 45 matches for the Bavarian club in the previous campaign across all competitions. Advertisement The Germany international proved his worth at times in the final third and did well to average 3.68 shots per 90 minutes in the Bundesliga. He kept 43.3% of his attempts on target. Sane was also tidy when distributing the ball in the opponent's half after completing 82.5% of his attempted passes in the German top tier (stats via Sane's current deal at Bayern is set to expire at the end of next season. Hence, Spurs could land him on a free transfer this summer. LEIPZIG, GERMANY – MAY 03: Leroy Sane of Bayern München controls the ball during the Bundesliga match between RB Leipzig and FC Bayern München at Red Bull Arena on May 03, 2025 in Leipzig, Germany. (Photo by) Will Sane Be A Decent Fit For Tottenham Hotspur? Sane has got the pace to cause a lot of headaches for his marker out in the wide areas. He can strike the ball with power from long range and can engineer some decent chances for his teammates to find the back of the net. Advertisement However, the Germany international has to find a way to be more consistent with his productivity in the final third. Sane already knows the Premier League well from his time at Manchester City and won't take much time to adjust to life at Tottenham. He is primarily a right-winger but can also fill in as a left-sided wide player or play in the number ten position if required. We can expect the German talent to bring more firepower to Ange Postecoglu's attack. He has what it takes to nail down a regular first-team spot at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium next season.
