Leroy Sane has explained his decision to join Galatasaray after choosing the Turkish giants despite interest from Arsenal and other clubs.
The Germany international decided to continue his career in Turkey after leaving Bayern Munich, bringing an end to his time with the Bundesliga giants.
Sane said the size of Galatasaray and the level of interest shown by the club played an important role in his decision. The winger was attracted by the atmosphere surrounding the Turkish champions and the ambition of the club.
Softfootball understands that Sane’s arrival is regarded as a major coup for Galatasaray, who are keen to strengthen their squad after another successful domestic campaign.
The former Manchester City player brings extensive experience from the Premier League, Bundesliga and Champions League. His pace, dribbling ability and attacking movement could provide Galatasaray with another dangerous option in the final third.
Arsenal had been linked with the winger, but Sane ultimately chose a different destination.
The move also gives him the opportunity to experience a new league and compete in an environment known for passionate supporters.
Galatasaray will hope Sane can quickly settle into the team and reproduce his best form as they target further domestic success and a strong European campaign.
His decision has already attracted significant attention across European football.
