Bayern Munich target Leroy Sane limps off injured as Man City take on Liverpool in Community Shield

BAYERN MUNICH target Leroy Sane limped off injured in the tenth-minute of Manchester City's Community Shield clash with Liverpool.

The German winger, 23, is on the brink of a mega-money move to Bayern Munich but that deal could be in jeopardy after he clashed with Trent Alexander-Arnold.

The pair appeared to come together in a heavy collision, with Sane having some treatment, before being taken off for Gabriel Jesus.

Sane was forced off the field just hours after it was reported he and Bayern had agreed to personal terms.

City have said they want £145million for the Germany international, who joined the club three years ago from Schalke for just £37m.

Now, Sane and Bayern are said to have agreed to a whopping £320,000-a-week pay packet - tallying £16.5m per year in wages.

Sky Sports in Germany say Bayern spoke to the player in London and agreed to his wage demands.

Now the Bundesliga champions just need to agree a fee with Etihad chiefs to get the transfer over the line.

The report claimed said: "The Sane deal is getting closer. The deal to Leroy Sane on the home straight."

While Sane and Pep Guardiola seemingly failed to see eye-to-eye for much of this summer, he was given the start in today's Community Shield final.

Sane has scored 39 goals in 100 games for City, winning back-to-back Premier League titles in the process.
