Barcelona think about Leroy Sane if they cash in on Raphinha

Leroy Sane’s contract with FC Bayern expires at the end of the season. It is still unclear what will happen next for the winger.

FC Barcelona and coach Hansi Flick could apparently get serious in the poker for the 28-year-old.

According to “todofichajes.com” FC Barcelona is seriously interested in signing leroy Sane on a free transfer in the summer.

According to the report, the DFB star could replace Raphinha at the Catalans.

Although the Brazilian is under contract with Barca until 2027, he has reportedly attracted interest from several Premier League clubs, including Manchester City.

Selling Raphinha could provide much-needed funds for the financially struggling Spanish club.

With leroy Sane available on a free transfer this summer due to his expiring contract with FC Bayern, he could be an attractive option.

However, other clubs are also showing interest in the 65-time German international.

Manchester United and Newcastle United from the Premier League are reportedly exploring the possibility of signing him.

Leroy Sane’s performance at FC Bayern has been improving lately

While an extension of his contract with the club is still a possibility, discussions about a new deal have not been particularly intense recently, according to football boss Christian Falk from “Bild” The winger is said to be seeking a substantial salary increase for an extension.

Currently, the club’s offer does not meet his expectations, but any improvement in negotiations may depend on his performance on the pitch.
