LEROY SANE may have missed out on playing in the World Cup for Germany, but at least that gives him some time off to do what he loves... shop!
The 22-year-old winger won the PFA Young Player of the Year award last season after another exciting campaign with Man City.
On the pitch, he was the epitome of style and grace as The Citizens ran away with the Premier League title.
But off it, we were just as wowed by Sane's excellent choice of clobber.
Embracing designers like Gucci, Givenchy, Balmain, Amiri and Off-White, Sane often shares his expensive outfits on Instagram.
But you don't have to buy luxury labels to get his look, because we've shopped around to find the high street alternatives that won't cost the earth.
Downtown
Sane loves going for a casual look on a night out in Manchester.
So, even if he's seen leaving a super posh hotel, he still appears dressed down for the occasion.
But ironically, his Off-White sweatshirt would've set him back 350 notes.
Sane paired the top with a longline T-shirt, Nike Air Jordan high tops and some biker jeans by Balmain - together, they totted up to a crazy £1,450.
- Biker jeans, £16.50 from Boohoo -
- Satin high-top trainers, £53 from Nike at Sneaker Stuff -
BoohooMAN does a pair of biker jeans that are the spit of Balmain's.
Cut in a skinny shape from light-blue denim, they're paneled with moto style details and ripped at the knees.
- Printed sweatshirt, £55 from Vans at ASOS -
- Longline top, £6 from Boohoo -
The key to Sane's easy styling is layering.
Let a longline top show from beneath your sweatshirt and you're sorted.
All-black-everything
Just to prove he's been stylish from the very start, we've pulled out this old picture of Sane after his Man City debut in September 2016.
The then-20-year-old was celebrating a 2-1 win against rivals Manchester United with team-mates at swanky Manchester restaurant Sakana.
He swagged out in an all-black outfit, including a pair of Amiri jeans and a Givenchy sweatshirt printed with the brand's iconic lettering.
Together that would've set him back £1,555 - pretty impressive numbers from such a young player.
- Printed sweatshirt, £5 from Boohoo -
- Biker jeans, £16.50 from Boohoo -
BoohooMAN is doing a similar sweatshirt with a lookalike typeface printed across the front - apart from, it says "romantic" rather than "Givenchy".
Still, at £5, it's a steal and £655 cheaper than Sane's. But hurry, it's selling out fast.
Sting like a scorpion
Known for his good looks and handsome head of hair, Sane is no stranger to pulling out his best Zoolander impression for pics.
He posted this one on Instagram a while back, with just the right kind of lighting to emphasise his cheekbones.
With a sunbeam framing his face he looked every inch an angel, but his streetwear-inspired look gave him a bit of edge.
The scorpion motif printed on to his £250 Off-White T-shirt could've suggested he was stung when he forked out that much for it.
- Chain multi-pack £12 from ASOS -
- Printed T-shirt, £21 from Good For Nothing at ASOS -
- Intarsia ribbed socks, £9.50 for three from Sports Direct -
But if you can't afford Sane's scorpion T-shirt, why not try Good For Nothing's £21 version.
Accessorise with Nike socks pulled up high and a stack of gold chains to get the look.
Layer up
At the start of the year, Sane was out for several months following an ankle injury.
However, that didn't stop the winger showing up to support his fellow team-mates at the Leicester game back in February at the Etihad.
He celebrated their whopping 5-1 win by posting a picture of himself in the stadium on Facebook - and he was in some serious get-up .
His reversible, denim-trimmed jacket and patchworked, shredded jeans - Dele Alli once wore this exact pair to a red carpet event - are both by Amiri and cost collectively a whopping £2,542.
- Appliqued jeans, £20.50 from ASOS -
- Check jacket, £32 from ASOS -
Luckily, ASOS have a few lookalikes that will save you some pennies.
These patchwork skinny jeans and western check jacket together cost £52.50 - that's 48 times cheaper than Sane's outfit.
- High-top trainers, £29.99 from Bershka at ASOS -
- Jersey hoodie, £17.99 from H&M -
Layer your jacket over a khaki hoodie like Sane and ground your look with a pair of box-fresh sneakers.
Bershka's high-top pair are a dead ringer for Balenciaga's iconic Arena style and cost only £29.99.

From Paris with love
In April, Sane took a romantic trip to Paris, the city of love, with his bae Candice Brooker.
They posed for an obligatory snap in front of the Eiffel tower.
Despite his girlfriend's Rihanna-level looks, our eyes were all on the footballer.
His seemingly casual, rock 'n' roll ACDC T-shirt was actually a Gucci number worth £450.
- Mirror sunglasses, £12 from ASOS -
- Printed T-shirt, £16.02 from Amazon -
Search 'ACDC' in Google and you'll find a plethora of T-shirts to pick from - but this one from Amazon it the best out there.
Accessorise like Sane with a pair of round-frame mirrored sunglasses, and you've got rock 'n roll football right there.
