Tottenham wants to take advantage of their Champions League qualification in this summer's transfer window, so that fierce rivals arsenal may be defeated for an important target
Tottenham has been given the opportunity to sign Leroy Sane, with the winger that Bayern Munich would leave. Sane came to Bayern from Manchester City in 2020 and helped them to win four Bundesliga titles.
But although this period he has been a normal under Vincent Kompany, the German looks to call time on his career in the Allianz Arena. Sane's contract will expire this summer, with Bayern not being able to agree on a new deal.
The 29-year-old scored 13 goals in 45 games in all competitions this season when Bayern the Bundesliga title renovated. He previously scored 39 goals in 135 games for City and helped them to win two Premier League titles, three Carabao Cups and the FA Cup.
During his time in Germany, Sane emerged as a target for Arsenal. But it now seems that fierce rivals have been able to muscles and went for the gunners in their pursuit.
Spurs won the Europa League last week and defeated Manchester United in the final. With the victory they ended a 17-year-old silver crowd and booked their place in the Champions League next season.
She seems to give that new reality a boost in the summer transfer window. According to Sky Sports, Spurs is 'offered the opportunity' to sign Sane for the new season.
The qualification for the Champions League is emphasized when making the London side a 'more attractive proposition'. Bayern has been left frustrated that Sane is ready to continue for free.
The 29-year-old seemed to be on the track to sign a new deal, before he suddenly switched from agents from Christian Schmid from 11wins to Pini Zahavi. Bayern's board member for Sport Max Eberl admitted that he was surprised by the move.
“We have good relationships with his agencies. It came as a bit of a surprise. We thought we were very far. We will see how things are developing.
“We will see what happens until the signature has been completed, nothing can be said. We have a clear idea and thought we were on the right track. Of course we talk to the new desk.
“There is no bad blood; the players are free to make their own decisions. We are very clear. The performance of Leroy in recent weeks has been very good; he has shown that he is committed to Bayern Munich. We hope he does it, and if not, we will continue there.
“At the moment the season is still being as a bit too normal. We have been at the top of the table since the third matchday, we are very stable and we have always responded very well to setbacks. It is a special, important championship. We are hungry for more!”
