Leroy Sane is still an active target for Liverpool

The latest rumblings in the football transfer mill suggest that Liverpool may have their sights set on Bayern Munich’s Leroy Sane as a potential replacement for Mohamed Salah.

According to Bild journalist Christian Falk via ECHO, Salah could once again become a target for Saudi Arabian clubs in the upcoming summer transfer window. In the event that Liverpool opt to part ways with their star forward, Sane has emerged as one of the names on their wishlist.

“That’s true, Leroy Sane is on the list at Liverpool FC,”

“As far as I have heard the Bayern player knows about this interest, but he has not yet decided how to proceed. He has changed his management and wants to decide in the summer.”

Sane’s situation at Bayern Munich adds an intriguing layer to the speculation. The winger, who joined Bayern from Manchester City, has yet to reach an agreement on a new contract with the German giants, with his current deal set to expire in 2025 (Transfermarkt). This uncertainty surrounding his future has piqued the interest of Liverpool, who are monitoring the situation closely.

Sane for Salah?

Falk’s insights shed light on Liverpool’s apparent interest in Sane, suggesting that the player himself is aware of the attention from the Premier League club. However, despite being in the know, Sane has not yet made a decision regarding his next move. With the summer transfer window looming on the horizon, Sane finds himself at a crossroads, weighing his options and considering the best course of action for his career.

It’s worth noting that Sane’s recent change of agents adds another dimension to the equation. This move suggests that the 28-year-old is keen to explore his options and assess his future prospects with a fresh perspective.

As he navigates this pivotal juncture in his career, Sane will undoubtedly take his time to deliberate and evaluate the various offers and opportunities that come his way. For Liverpool, the potential acquisition of Sane would represent a significant coup. Blessed with blistering pace, technical flair, and a keen eye for goal, Sane possesses the attributes to thrive in a high-octane system.

However, much remains uncertain at this stage, with Sane’s future hanging in the balance. Liverpool’s interest in the Bayern winger is clear, but whether a deal materializes hinges on a myriad of factors, including Sane’s own preferences, Bayern Munich’s stance, and the intricacies of the transfer market. Whether Leroy Sane ultimately dons the famous red jersey remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure: the prospect of his arrival is surely exciting but at the cost of Mohamed Salah or not remains shrouded.
