Sane has 'world-class' potential but there's 'different pressure' at Bayern, says Scholl

Leroy Sane has "world-class" potential but there's a "different pressure" to playing at Bayern Munich, according to Mehmet Scholl.

Sane has returned to Germany ahead of the 2020-21 season, joining Bayern from Manchester City in a deal that could reportedly rise to £55 million ($73m).

Though the Germany international won two Premier League titles, a pair of EFL Cups and the FA Cup while at Pep Guardiola's City, he has moved to a Bayern side coming off a treble-winning season.

Scholl, who made 469 appearances for Bayern between 1992 and 2007, feels Sane, 24, needs to be aware of the lofty expectations in his new environment.
