‘I’m So Disappointed That Sané Wants To Leave City’ – Guardiola

Leroy Sané has rejected Manchester City’s latest contract offer and wants to leave the club, Pep Guardiola has confirmed.

The 24-year-old hopes to join Bayern Munich and could leave this season or when his contract expires in the summer of 2021 after resisting City’s attempts to extend his stay in Manchester.

Sané was heavily linked with Bayern last summer before suffering knee ligament damage during the Community Shield which ruled him out for seven months.

Guardiola said he is “so disappointed” that Sané wants to leave City and described the 2018 PFA Young Player of the Year as a “special” talent.

“Leroy has said he doesn’t want to extend his contract next season. He wants to leave,” the City manager revealed on Friday.

“That will either happen this summer or when he is out of contract. The club spoke to Leroy two or three times to extend his contract. He rejected. He wants to play at another club.

“The club said to me that Leroy has rejected the contract and like everyone knows if at the end of the season both clubs arrive at an agreement he’ll leave, if not then he’ll stay one more year and then leave at the end of his contract.”
