Arsenal They are supposedly in a battle with Liverpool on a deal to sign Bayern Munich star Leroy Sane, according to transfer journalist Ekrem Konur.
After enjoying a successful stage in city of manchesterThe 28-year-old decided to return to his homeland and sign for the Bavarian club in 2020.
The striker has had a successful spell in recent years at the Allianz Arena, but following the arrival of Michael Olise last summer, he has found it difficult to regularly break into Vincent Kompany's starting XI so far this season.
He has only started three games in the Bundesliga and in the champions league this season and two of those starts came in the last two games against Borussia Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain.
Furthermore, his current contract is set to expire at the end of this season, so speculation about his future has continued to arise in recent weeks.

writing in unknown, Konur claims that Bayern have been in talks with the forward to extend his contract until 2029, but an agreement has not yet been reached. Arsenal have been closely monitoring the player's current situation and are prepared to pounce if an opportunity arises next year.
However, buying him will not be easy for the north London club, as Liverpool are also interested in signing him and, along with them, manchester united, Newcastle UnitedEdit and Barcelona They are also in this race.

Sane: valued at around £50 million per Transfer market – is an experienced player and has proven himself at the highest level over the years. The forward feels comfortable on both sides and having a player like him is always good.
he is a first division proven player, so he would be a smart acquisition for Arsenal or Liverpool if either club manages to sign him as a free agent.
However, it will be interesting to see if Arsenal or Liverpool can eventually win the race to sign the Germany international if he leaves the Allianz Arena next year.
