The Leroy Sane transfer saga has seemingly been dragging since last summer. The German winger was reportedly set to move to Bayern Munich before the start of the 2019-20 season but injured his ACL in the Community Shield game against Liverpool. The injury ruled him out for the majority of this season but he made a return to the first-team setup before the league was suspended in March. With the Bundesliga set to return this weekend, Bayern Munich are reportedly planning to strengthen their squad for next season and Leroy Sane appears to be firmly in their transfer plans.
