Pep Guardiola Says Leroy Sane Is Edging Towards Extending His Stay At Manchester City

Pep Gurdiola has confirmed Manchester City are negotiating a new contract with Leroy Sane.

Despite making a profuse contribution to City’s Premier League title triumph last season the youngster didn’t get a call up in the World Cup as Germany gaffer Joachim Low thought the youngster wouldn’t be a match to his strategy.

But following Germany’s pathetic first round exit from the World Cup Low recalled the player for the UEFA Nations League. Despite being one of the most talented young players, the 22 year old has often attracted criticism for his attitude and commitment towards the game.

Sane wasn’t really involved in the first four Premier League matches as he only made brief appearances from the bench. But the German international was named in the starting lineup for the last three games.

On being asked about the contractual situation Guardiola said,  “The club are working on that.”

“We’re not going to extend the contract for one player just for recent performances. We’re not going to extend the contract for Raheem [Sterling] because he scored two goals against Spain.

“We value the quality of the player, the human being, the relationship with the club, how settled he is in that position, if he is younger or older. So, many things are important.

“Up and down, moments better than the other ones, that’s normal. To help in the bad moments, let them understand how consistent they must be in their careers to be better players.

“I said many times, it depends if you play more or less, sometimes you need one type of game, sometimes you need another type of game. Quicker, counter-attack, more control or less control.

“There’s no doubts about the quality of Leroy.”
