Real Madrid were offered the chance to sign Bayern Munich winger Leroy Sane this summer, according to media outlet Marca.
The 26 year old Germany international joined German champions Bayern Munich from English side Manchester City in 2020 for a fee of €60million.
Real Madrid were reportedly offered the chance to sign the Bayern Munich midfielder by his agent during negotiations for Luka Jovic’s departure to Fiorentina. Jovic and Sane share the same agent.
However, despite the chance to sign the 26 year old winger this summer, Real Madrid president Florentino Perez rejected the opportunity as the club is focused on exits and not incomings.
Perez is reportedly keen on moving on players that Carlo Ancelotti doesn’t count on for the new season.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti reportedly offloaded Luka Jovic to Italian club Fiorentina because the striker is lazy.
According to Italian journalist Enzo Bucchioni, Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti described Jovic as an excellent striker but also a lazy player.
“I spoke to Carlo Ancelotti, he told me: Luka Jovic is an excellent striker. Not very mobile, but strong in the penalty area, good with his head and with his feet,” Bucchioni said.
“A serious guy. If he is motivated he will do very well, I am convinced of it. Negatives? Sometimes he is a bit lazy, he needs to be stimulated”
