Manchester City attacker Leroy Sane is reportedly keen on joining Bayern Munich during the January transfer window rather than waiting until the end of the season.
The 23-year-old was strongly linked with a switch to the Allianz Arena during the summer before a knee injury scuppered his chances of joining the Bundesliga champions.
Sane continues to be linked with a move to Bayern, though, and the speculation is expected to increase over the next few weeks as the Germany international nears a return to fitness.
According to Bild, the former Schalke 04 youngster is determined to join Bayern when the winter window opens for business, although City are not expected to drop their £135m valuation.
Sane, who has scored 39 goals and registered 45 assists in 134 outings for the Citizens, will see his current deal at the Etihad Stadium expire at the end of next season.
The attacker has allegedly already turned down a host of new contract offers from the English champions.
