Bayern Munich Give Leroy Sané a Deadline for Contract Decision

Bayern Munich have set a deadline for Leroy Sané to decide on a contract extension. Director Max Eberl says they will not wait forever. The club’s offer to Sané remains the same. He and his new agents must now make a key decision about staying in Munich.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Sané’s contract ends in June 2025. He is one of Bayern‘s best players this season, with nine Bundesliga goals and 11 assists. Bayern have offered him a new three-year deal with a €10 million salary and up to €5 million in bonuses.

Sané, who has changed his agent to Pini Zahavi, wants more money. He is asking for a base salary of €12 million along with €3 million in bonuses. Bayern will not change their offer. Sané has 10 days to decide whether to accept it. If he refuses, the club will withdraw the offer, and Sané may have to find a new club this summer.

CONTRACT TALKS TAKE CENTER STAGE

The contract standoff comes at a key time for Bayern Munich. They sit third in the Bundesliga, one point behind second-placed Stuttgart and three behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen. Only two matches are left in the season. Bayern want to reclaim domestic dominance, and Sané is a key player in Bayern’s attack. Losing him would be a major setback.

The recent change in Sané’s management has made things more difficult. His agents are reportedly looking for options in the Premier League. Arsenal and Chelsea are interested in signing him if he becomes available on a free transfer.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR BAYERN AND SANÉ?

Bayern Munich’s next match is against eighth-placed Hoffenheim. Bayern need a win to put pressure on their title rivals. Sané’s contract situation could impact their squad planning and financial strategy for next season. If both parties do not reach an agreement before the deadline, Sané may leave the club, leading to a major change in Bayern’s squad.

With the deadline drawing close, all eyes will be on Sané and his decision. Bayern fans hope the winger will decide to stay and help the club fight for silverware.
