Bayern Munich signing Sane: Pep reprogrammed me at Man City

Bayern Munich signing Leroy Sane has lifted the lid on playing for Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

Sane joined Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich in a £55million move in July but has now opened up on the importance of working with Guardiola and how the boss improved his game.

"In positional play, in the general perception of the entire game, in tactical behaviour both offensively and defensively - Guardiola downright reprogrammed me," he told Kicker.

"It's the simple movements that make you think, "Oh, never". But when you implement them, you realise very quickly that Guardiola is right.

"What he advises helps a lot, it makes the game easier and faster. Tactics are the most important thing to him."
