Leroy Sané inspires Galatasaray fans in Istanbul before a big change

national player Leroy Sané has announced his upcoming move to Galatasaray Istanbul and was enthusiastically received by hundreds of fans when he arrived in the Turkish metropolis. The player, who is currently still under contract with Bayern Munich, expressed a positive statement about the atmosphere and the support of the supporters, who welcomed him with chants and a Galatasaray scarf. This impressive reception ceremony was even broadcast live on YouTube and attracted an impressive number of spectators.

Sané is expected to sign a contract with Galatasaray by 2028. As the Sky , the deal includes a net content of 15 million euros per year and a signing fairy. Sané, who flew from London to Istanbul on Wednesday evening, will complete a medical check on Thursday before the change is officially carried out.

decision for Galatasaray

In an interview with Turkish journalists, Sané said that in addition to Galatasaray, other Turkish clubs, including Al-Hilal, showed interest in him. However, he opted for the conditions offered and the passionate support of the fans at Galatasaray. FC Bayern Munich, in which Sané was signed by Manchester City for almost 50 million euros, has made it clear that Sané will not travel to the World Cup after deciding to change.

Sané is considered one of the top earners at Bavaria and was not ready to accept a significant drop in salary. For this reason, the move to Istanbul proved to be the ideal solution for the player to seek a new challenge in another European competition.

The background of the change

Before the change to the public was announced, Galatasaray had initiated the first official negotiations with Sané, which are now in the final phase. The transfer itself is referred to as a transfer free, which is not unusual in the football world, but is often associated with high one -off payments to the players.

In the eventful history of the transfers, Sané has already received various offers, but ultimately his choice was made on Galatasaray. The decision to play in the Süper Lig could also have the incentive to reach a new audience and to develop in another football environment.

The coming days will be crucial, while Sané is preparing for his first home game in Istanbul and his new role is played by Galatasaray. It remains to be seen how he will beat in the Turkish league, but the expectations on the part of the fans and the club are high.
