Leroy Sane 'is commuting between Munich, London and Manchester' because his American model girlfriend 'no longer wanted to live in Germany.'
The Germany international winger, 27, wasn't part of Bayern Munich's training sessions during the international break last week, leading to speculation as to his whereabouts.
It transpires, according to German newspaper Bild, that Sane was desperate to spend some time with partner Candice Brook and their children, Rio Stella and Milo.
They moved back to England because Candice no longer wanted to live in Munich and splits her time between London and Manchester, where Sane was a City player until his £54.
