Manchester City winger Leroy Sane has asked to leave the club, according to reports in the Spanish media.
It is claimed that the Citizens will still block the 23-year-old’s departure, even though the player doesn’t want to stay.
Some supporters on Twitter want to get as much money as they can for Sane:
100mil + Coman

You have to question why a Spanish source, rather than an English or German one, would have the inside scoop on Sane’s transfer to Bayern Munich.
Without any other reports backing these claims in Spain, I think it’s safe to say that Sane’s future is yet to be decided.
The German international has two years remaining on his current contract at the Etihad Stadium. He has been offered a new deal but as things stand, he has neither accepted nor rejected the contract. Whether that changes, we shall have to wait and see.
