The German international started the season away from the starting lineup of his team before some absences gave him the opportunity to start in the last matches.
According to ” Sport1 “, Chelsea expressed interest in contracting the former Manchester City player after failing to sign the Brazilian Rafinha, who recently joined Barcelona from Leeds United.
This interest came in light of German coach Thomas Tuchel’s dissatisfaction with the duo Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech.
But the Bavarian club stood in the way of this step, after informing its player that he was part of the team’s plans for the coming years and that he would get opportunities to play regularly as well.
Sane understood his club’s position, as well as his lack of interest in returning to the Premier League, which frustrated the Blues’ attempt to include him.
