Draxler defends Sane over Man City exit talk

Talk has been ripe surrounding the future of Manchester City's Leroy Sane since the FA Cup final, with Bayern Munich actively looking to bring the winger back to Germany.

However, Julian Draxler is unsure of what the future may hold for his former Schalke teammate according to Goal.

"I don't feel like he is forcing a transfer, but in football, anything can happen," PSG star Draxler said.

"I didn't ask him personally if he's going or not, but there have been some jokes. I've just said to him 'mia san mia' (Bayern's club motto) all the time in the last few days.

"When the media discusses a possible transfer of a great player like him, then you are curious.

"But you have to leave him alone and not ask him personally about what he will do. That would be too much.

"I think he would help Bayern a lot, like every other team in the world. I'm curious to know what will happen, but I think he looks happy at City and doesn't necessarily want to leave."
