Overview

  • Leroy Sané attended a charity event in Monaco on Thursday without informing FC Bayern, surprising coach Vincent Kompany and sporting director Max Eberl when photos surfaced Friday morning.
  • Sané's contract extension talks with Bayern remain stalled after his agent Pini Zahavi demanded €12 million in fixed salary plus €3 million in bonuses, exceeding Bayern's original offer.
  • The club had previously proposed a three-year extension with a reduced fixed salary of €10 million and up to €5.5 million in bonuses, with both sides reportedly close to agreement before Sané changed agents.
  • Bayern's management emphasized that the situation will be handled internally, maintaining a focus on team unity ahead of Saturday's season finale against Hoffenheim.
  • Bayern faces a critical May 17 deadline to finalize Sané's extension as his current contract expires on June 30, with uncertainty over his potential departure growing.
