Bayern Munich transfer news: Bundesliga winners pressurise City to sell Sane for €40m
Bayern Munich transfer news: Bavarian Giants are putting pressure on Manchester City to offload Leroy Sane for €40 million before his contract ends next year.
Bayern Munich sealed their eighth consecutive Bundesliga title with a 1-0 win over Werder Bremen on Tuesday. The Bavarian giants endured a tough start to their season under Niko Kovac but recovered quickly since assistant manager Hansi Flick was promoted to lead the group of talented players. Post the Bundesliga title win, the Bayern Munich transfer news are beginning to pick up as Leroy Sane to Bayern Munich rumours continue to pile on. The Manchester City winger might feature in Wednesday's Man City vs Arsenal match after being forced to remain on the sidelines due to an ACL injury suffered in the Community Shield clash against Liverpool.

Leroy Sane to Bayern Munich transfer rumours pick up the pace
As per recent reports, Bayern Munich are playing hardball against Manchester City with respect to the Leroy Sane transfer which has been dragged along for far too long to be honest. The pacy German winger has not played in the English top-flight for the most part of this season owing to the devastating ACL injury he suffered last year. However, it is rumoured that Karl-Heinz Rummenigge remains a huge fan of the German international and is keen on landing his signature this summer itself.
Bayern Munich transfer news; Leroy Sane transfer update
A Leroy Sane to Bayern Munich transfer is very much possible in the coming months after the Bavarian giants are pressurising City to sell well below the latter's valuation of Sane for just €40 million. Sane's contract with Man City ends next year and he will be free to negotiate a Bosman transfer in another six months. Bayern Munich are using this clause in his contract to force City to sell for a lower price. In addition to Sane, Bayern Munich and Manchester City are also reportedly battling it out for Bayer Leverkusen star prodigy Kai Havertz.
