Arsenal may have an opportunity to secure a major signing this summer, as Bayern Munich’s Leroy Sane could be available. With the Gunners in the market for elite talent to reinforce their squad, Sports Bild reports that Sane is on Arsenal’s radar, as Bayern Munich is considering offloading the high-earning forward to manage costs. This would be an intriguing addition for Arsenal, as Sane is a player with proven Premier League experience and could bring substantial value to their attacking options.
Sane’s familiarity with the Premier League, having been a key player for Manchester City, is a potential advantage, as is his previous connection with Mikel Arteta, who was part of City’s coaching team during Sane’s time there. This history may give Arsenal an edge in convincing Sane to return to England and could help Arteta in his ongoing mission to build a squad capable of competing at the top of both the Premier League and European competitions.
Arsenal has made significant strides in recent seasons, evidenced by their willingness to invest in high-calibre players such as Declan Rice and Kai Havertz. Adding Sane to this lineup would represent another big step forward, enhancing their already potent attack. The 27-year-old forward is known for his speed, technical skill, and goal-scoring ability, attributes that would complement Arsenal’s current attacking options, including Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli. Sane’s versatility would allow Arteta to use him across various attacking roles, adding depth and dynamism.
Financially, Arsenal’s position has improved significantly, allowing them to contend for players of Sane’s calibre. Bayern’s interest in reducing payroll might make this transfer feasible, especially given the cost-saving pressures that many European clubs are facing post-pandemic. While competition from other top clubs for Sane’s signature may emerge, Arsenal’s development and Arteta’s vision for the team could make North London an appealing destination for him.
Should Arsenal successfully secure Sane, his arrival would signal the club’s continued ambition and could be pivotal as they strive for domestic and European success. Bringing in a player of Sane’s stature would underscore Arsenal’s resurgence as a top European contender, marking a new phase in Arteta’s project at the Emirates.

Really? There’s nothing world class about Sane. If he was, Olise wont be playing ahead of him. There’s nothing exceptional about him atm.
Is he a fair backup for Saka? Maybe.
Would he make us want to drop Saka? Most likely not.
Are we going to get frustrated sometimes with him? Certainly.
So please calm down with the world class. He was never world class but a good player on his day
Too old. Too expensive. Too hyped. Too obvious.
We don’t need another winger unless someone leaves. We NEED a pure #9, a good old fashioned finisher.
Zinny, Tomi & Kivior out.
Partey & Jorginho out.
Sterling, Jesus & Trossasrd out.
Diamanté, Zubimende, Osimhen & Kudus IN
Well, he’s fee free, so I guess that’s a plus. Whether he really fits the bill for Arsenal is another matter. Utd are reported to be interested in him as well. We’ll see.
Niko Williams In
Martinelli out/bench
We need a winger more urgently, we need niko pleasssss, not sane
Williams is good (although I’m not sure his form is as good this season as last) but Barcelona are, apparently, still interested so there will be at least some competition should Arsenal ever move for him.
Sane is well past his peak, doesn’t start too many matches, streaky and a bit selfish. Not dissimilar to Raheem Sterling so a backward move if we buy him.
He is a speed and skill based player fast approaching 30, he will only go downhill from here..
Look at sterling for what Sane would become
