WHAT HAPPENED?
Per in Germany, Bayern are in talks with Sane over a new deal and expected the winger to agree to a reduced salary compared to his current deal, with a reduction of around €6 million (£5m/$7m).

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Sane is said to have decided that he is not willing to take a salary reduction without a significant signing-on fee, and has been left dissatisfied with the overall package. His contract expires this summer and he is also aware of the fact that team-mates have received major signing-on fees. Sky reports that Alphonso Davies earned around €20m (£17m/$23m) as his signing-on fee when he committed his future to the club.
