Arsenal monitoring Sane, he has a great relationship with Arteta | OneFootball

Arsenal are keeping an eye on Bayern Munich attacking midfielder Leroy Sane’s contract situation, according to Sky Sport Germany.

The former Manchester City star’s contract at the Bundesliga club expires in 2025, but talks about a new deal are ongoing.

Arsenal are monitoring the situation, as manager Mikel Arteta and Sane have a great relationship.

Sane prefers to remain at Bayern, and the appointment of his former Man City teammate Vincent Kompany as the new manager could influence his decision.

The Germany international established a solid friendship with Arteta while the Arsenal boss was an assistant coach to Pep Guardiola at Man City, praising him in an interview in April.

“Thanks to him and his ideas, I improved quickly,” Sane said. “I still have them in my head and try to implement them in games.”

Guardiola called the winger the ‘best in the world’ at playing out wide, and Arsenal could do with such a player within their ranks.

Sane can play on both wings and through the middle, with his direct style of play, dribbling and passing his key strengths.

He ended his time in the Premier League with 25 goals and 29 assists in 90 games and has bagged 48 goals and 50 assists in 175 games for Bayern.

Arteta made him a better player at Man City, and a reunion between the pair would help bring out the best in the attacker once again.

Arsenal could do with his experience and quality as they strive to win the Premier League title next term.

However, getting a deal done for him is not on the cards right now and they will keep watching to see how his future at Bayern unfolds.
