Bayern Munich Could Resume Pursuit of Manchester City's Leroy Sane

Edmund Stoiber, chairman of Bayern Munich's advisory board, has said the club could go back in for Manchester City's Leroy Sane next year.

Bayern were linked with a move for Sane in the summer that could have exceeded €100 million (£86 million), but a transfer did not materialise after the winger suffered a serious injury.

Stoiber told Sport Bild (h/t Goal):

"There were discussions over Sane. The unfortunate injury and the surgery he required for it broke the deal up.

"We'll see how things develop. As chairman of the advisory board and a member of the supervisory board, I have great faith in the sporting leadership.
