Details of Bayern Munich’s contract offer to Leroy Sané | OneFootball

Bayern Munich have reportedly opted to offer attacker Leroy Sané a contract extension. This is reported by both Florian Plettenberg and Kicker who note that the German giants have offered a three-year deal, but are asking the 29-year-old to take a pay cut. Plettenberg speaks of a 50 percent reduction in base pay while Kicker doesn’t cite specific figures.

A return to form and praise from his teammates evidently leave Bayern interested in retaining Sané’s services. Max Eberl and the FCB administrative team must also work quickly to ensure full commitment from players with expiring contracts ahead of the coming Club World Cup in June/July. According to Plettenberg, Sané could still earn three quarters of his current salary if certain performance-based incentives are met.

Thus far this year, Sané has scored 11 goals and contributed six assists in 36 appearances across all competitions. The Essen-native still maintains a €34m estimated market value and has been linked with a move back to the Premier League with Arsenal interested in signing the 69-times-capped international on a free transfer.
