Leroy Sané (29, Bayern Munich) could not avoid a sharp reprimand. He is facing fierce criticism in Germany for suddenly overturning negotiations to renew his contract with Bayern.

Germany's 'Bild' reported on the 10th (Korean time) that "Roman Weidenfeller has violently attacked Sané! A heated debate is underway regarding the replacement of Bayern star Sané's agent. Ultimately, will he not extend his contract?"

The media noted that "Weidenfeller cannot understand Sané's situation at all. He, who once played for Borussia Dortmund, is criticizing Sané. He has even raised questions about his character."

Weidenfeller, who is from rival Dortmund, publicly targeted Sané during a grants on 'Sky Sports Germany.' He pointed out, "In fact, Sané has put everyone in a predicament. First it was Bayern, then it was his former agent Christian Schmidt, and of course the fans. Sané clearly expressed his desire to stay at Bayern."

Weidenfeller also said, "I think that is ultimately character. To me, character is a typical depiction of society. People always pursue their own interests," criticizing Sané's disposition. He acknowledged that he understands Sané's desire to maximize his salary but emphasized, "If he agreed to the contract, he should sign it."

Sané's contract with Bayern will expire at the end of this season. In fact, it seemed likely that he would leave the team as he is a high-salary player who has not shown much performance to meet expectations. In Germany, both Sané and Serge Gnabry, as well as Kingsley Coman, have all been classified on the release list.

However, the atmosphere has changed in recent months. Sané publicly shouted that he wants to stay at Bayern, and his performance on the pitch has begun to improve. There have even been reports that he is ready to accept a pay cut.

The Bayern board also fell back into contemplation and offered Sané a three-year contract extension. The terms included lowering his fixed salary to 10 million euros (approximately 15.7 billion won) and paying bonuses based on his performance. Sané agreed to this and completed a verbal agreement. Only the official announcement was left.

However, Sané suddenly changed his mind. Just before signing the contract, he unexpectedly fired his agent and teamed up with 'super agent' Pini Zahavi. Now Sané's future has become uncertain. The Bayern board is reportedly very angry with him for breaking the promise.

Bild reported that "Sané and Bayern were just about to extend their expiring contract. His new contract was already agreed upon. But it was suddenly nullified just before signing. Surprisingly, Sané parted ways with his agency and joined Zahavi. Since then, what will happen to him after the summer has become completely unclear."

The media explained that "Sané is completely dissatisfied with the terms of the contract negotiated so far. He is now demanding a signing bonus, making him a subject of discussion for a free agent (FA). According to our information, Bayern is not prepared to offer significantly improved contract terms."

Ultimately, it seems that Sané's greed for money has reversed the situation. Perhaps due to his recent accumulation of attacking points and growing confidence, he wants to extract a signing bonus at all costs. However, Bayern has no intention of accepting Sané's increased demands, so if this continues, the likelihood of failing to renew the contract is high.

Sané is already exploring a return to the Premier League. Having previously played for Manchester City, he is reportedly in contact with Arsenal and Chelsea. While Sané has also received offers from Saudi clubs, he prioritizes life in London.
