Bayern Munich Player Set to Stay Put
Chelsea's Move for Star Forward Stalls
Transfer Saga Concludes with Disappointment for Blues
In a surprising turn of events, Bayern Munich's star forward, Leroy Sané, has decided to remain with the German giants, dashing Chelsea's hopes of securing his services.
Chelsea had been heavily linked with a move for Sané throughout the summer transfer window, with reports suggesting a fee in the region of €60 million had been agreed upon. However, the player himself has now revealed that he has opted to stay at Bayern, citing his desire to win more trophies with the club.
The news will come as a major disappointment to Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel, who was keen to add Sané's pace and creativity to his attacking line. The Blues have been relatively quiet in the transfer market this summer, with the acquisition of Raheem Sterling from Manchester City being their only major signing thus far.
