Leroy Sane makes transfer decision as Arsenal and Liverpool look to snap up Germany star in free transfer

Sane's contract is set to run out this summer at Bayern, and reports have suggested that the German is nearing an exit as a free agent after the end of this campaign. As such, Premier League giants Liverpool and Arsenal had shown interest in signing the former Manchester City winger.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

As per Sky Germany, Sane has been offered a new contract by Bayern until the summer of 2028; however, the extension would see him take up a significant wage drop. The German international currently earns €20 million (£17.2m/$22.3m) with the Bavarian, and he would see his salary drop to €10m (£9m/$11m) and around €15m (£13m/$17m) if he meets his performance criteria.
