Manchester City winger Leroy Sane is allegedly edging closer to a move to Bayern Munich during the next transfer window.

Leroy Sane has reportedly moved nearer to securing a transfer away from Manchester City.

Despite having spent the season on the sidelines with a serious knee injury, the winger has been frequently linked with a switch to Bayern Munich.

Although City would prefer to keep the Germany international at the Etihad Stadium, they will likely be forced into a sale during the next window if Sane does not extend his contract past 2021.

As well as acknowledging that the interest from Bayern is "no secret", agent Damir Smoljan has suggested that other top clubs are keen on Sane.

Speaking to Bild, Smoljan said: "Together with him, we talk with Manchester City about what the next step could look like. The interest of Bayern Munich is no secret. But other absolute top clubs also contacted us about Leroy.

"Bayern is the only club in Germany that Leroy can imagine as the next step in his career. He sees there the requirements for achieving his big goal of winning the Champions League."

Bayern are said to be unwilling to meet City's current valuation, said to be in the region of £87m.
