Coman ready to fight for place if Bayern sign Sane

Kingsley Coman has revealed he will have no problem if Bayern Munich sign Germany international Leroy Sane from Manchester City this summer, and has vowed to fight for his place in the team. Sane has been continually linked with a move to Bayern Munich over the past year and the speculation is heightening as the summer transfer window approaches. The two clubs reportedly reached an advanced stage in talks last week although a final deal is yet to be agreed as the Citizens are insisting on a fee in the region of €70 million. If a deal is agreed and the move materializes, Leroy Sane will be expected to feature on the left-wing in Hansi Flick's team. This role has been owned by Coman for the majority of the ongoing 2019/20 season. READ: BEST FOOTBALL BETTING TIPS FOR TODAY READ...

Neuer extends contract with Bayern Munich

Manuel Neuer has extended his contract with Bayern Munich and will remain at the Allianz Arena until 2023. The Germany international, who is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, is now 34 and on course for his 8th Bundesliga title in 9 seasons. The Bavarian giants have dominated the German Bundesliga for close to a decade with Neuer playing his part between the sticks in that period. So it's only right that he's awarded for the role he has played. The player's career hit a rock in the 2017/18 season after he suffered back-to-back fractures to his metatarsals. This kept him out for a while as Sven Ulreich deputized between the sticks in his absence. “During the weeks of the shutdown for the coronavirus pandemic, I didn't want to make a decision because nobody knew if, when and...
