Manchester United are reportedly interested in Leroy Sane but Bayern Munich are keen to extend the German’s stay in Germany.

Manchester United has been linked to former Manchester City winger Leroy Sane in recent days as they prepare plans to strengthen the squad in 2025.

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is under huge pressure to turn results around after a poor start to the season.

The Dutchman will be looking to strengthen his attacking options in the coming transfer windows if he remains at the helm at Old Trafford.

Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has reported on Bayern Munich director of Sport Max Eberl’s comments on the Sane situation.

On X, Plettenberg tweeted: ” FC Bayern boss Max Eberl on the possible extension of Leroy Sané’s contract, which is expiring in summer:  ‘

“It is important right now that Leroy feels comfortable again and can show what he’s capable of on the pitch. We are in open communication with his agent, and as soon as a decision is made, we will announce it.”
