Sano scored in Japan’s World Cup round of 32 clash with Brazil on Monday, but his goal was not enough to prevent a 2-1 defeat.

The 25-year-old is coming off a strong campaign for Mainz, in which he made 48 appearances in all competitions, scoring two goals and providing five assists.

With Sano under contract until 2028, Mainz are in a solid negotiating position.

Bild speculated in March that the Bundesliga outfit could command a fee in the region of €50-60 million for their highly-rated midfielder, who has previously been linked with Eintracht Frankfurt and Brentford FC.
