"In every game [Germany played at the World Cup], he gave everything he had and worked incredibly hard for the team.

"Unfortunately, it has almost become fashionable to blame him. He didn't have a bad World Cup at all.

“To be honest, I actually find it a bit amusing that people are now making Leroy Sané the scapegoat,” Buruk concluded.

In his first campaign for the Turkish Süper Lig giants before the World Cup began, Sané bagged 7 goals and 8 assists in 40 games.
