It is well known that Sane’s contract with Bayern expires at the end of this month. The club offered him a new deal, but with significantly reduced financial terms. The winger, however, did not accept the conditions and is now clearly heading for a free transfer. In Turkey, he is expected to earn nearly €15 million net per season — a figure higher than what Bayern were prepared to pay.
There are still conflicting reports about whether Sane will play for Bayern at the Club World Cup, which begins this weekend in the United States. He was included in the squad selected by Vincent Kompany, and it was believed that the club might offer him at least a short-term contract for the duration of the tournament. However, the latest reports suggest Sane may not feature again in a Bayern shirt and may have already played his final match for the club.
