“Only because Arteta is there” – Bayern Munich Chief Confirms €56m Agreement with Arsenal Over Star Forward who Desperately wants to Play for Arteta.

Arsenal have received a boost in their quest to sign Leroy Sane. The German forward has endured mixed times at Bayern Munich of late. His place in the starting XI has come under threat since the arrival of Sadio Mane at the Allianz Arena this summer.

Sane has appeared 19 times for the Bundesliga giants this season, registering ten goals and six assists.

However, the 26-year-old could be open to joining a club where he would be a guaranteed starter. The Gunners are monitoring him with interest as they attempt to upgrade their frontline.

Speaking to Give Me Sport, journalist Pete O’Rourke said that Sane could seriously consider moving to the Emirates should the north London side come calling.

“I think it would only help, if there’s any potential move for Leroy Sane, if he knows people that he has previously worked with, like Mikel Arteta

I’m sure it will come into his thinking if he wants to leave Bayern Munich, and he will definitely seriously consider a move to Arsenal because Arteta’s there, and the players that he’s played with as well,” said O’Rourke.

Sane was part of the Germany team that crashed out of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar in the group stage after finishing third, behind Japan and Spain
