Exclusive: What Arsenal sources are now saying about Leroy Sane after links to the Emirates
Very interesting...????
- EXCLUSIVE from Graeme Bailey
Arsenal had a pretty decent summer transfer window but they did fail to land some of their priority targets.
Mikel Arteta added three new signings to his ranks in Riccardo Calafiori, Mikel Merino and Raheem Sterling – who joined from Chelsea on deadline day,
Though, Arsenal did miss out on Nico Williams and Benjamin Sesko, both of whom were considered top targets.
Bayern Munich’s Leroy Sane is a name that has cropped up within the media in recent weeks and TBR Football can now provide the latest on Arsenal’s rumoured interest.
Arsenal play down links to Leroy Sane
Arsenal have played down suggestions they have held talks about a deal for Leroy Sane, TBR Football understands.
We understand that whilst Sane is a player they are aware of and that Mikel Arteta knows well, he is not currently seen as a priority for the club.
Sane’s people are starting to speak to clubs around Europe – putting work in and letting them know he is a free agent.
However, Bayern remain hopeful he will sign a new contract in Munich.

Sane will only leave Bayern Munich for a Champions League club
If Sane is to depart Bayern in 2025, Sane’s people have made it clear he will only join a Champions League side.
Aston Villa and Newcastle are monitoring his situation but the finances required to sign him would likely rule them out of the race.
Particularly Newcastle, who continue to contend with Financial Fair Play regulations which forced them to sell talented duo Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson in the summer.
