Manchester City not interested in selling Leroy Sane

Despite several reports claiming that Bayern Munich have made a breakthrough in negotiations for Leroy Sane, it has been now revealed by Sky Sports that sources close to Manchester City have denied all such claims and maintained that no official bids have been received for the German winger.

As per the latest reports, Leroy Sane has not informed the club about his desire to leave. However, City had failed to reach an agreement with Leroy Sane for a new contract last summer. But they are now hopeful that the winger will sign a new contract at the Etihad.

Manchester City are currently touring Asia and are in Hong Kong ahead of Wednesday's game against local club Kitchee. This will be a huge setback for Bayern Munich who are looking to bring in top-quality talent as replacements for Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery.
