Galatasaray Confronts Sane Over Form Slump
4 Oct
Summary
- Leroy Sane faces management meeting due to poor form.
- He has no goal contributions in seven appearances this season.
- Club views next two matches as defining tests for Sane.
Galatasaray's management plans to meet with winger Leroy Sane to address his current poor form. The 30-year-old has yet to provide a single goal contribution in seven competitive appearances this season. This meeting, scheduled before upcoming matches against Kasimpasa and Barcelona, aims to uncover the reasons behind his slump and demand rapid improvement from the highly-paid player.
Internally, the club views the next two games as defining moments for the German international. Weeks of tension have surrounded Sane, who was notably left out of the national team squad. Reports indicate he has been unhappy with his playing time and considered an early departure, feeling his ambitions are not met by a squad player role.
Sane joined Galatasaray from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2025, recording seven goals and nine assists in 43 appearances during his debut season. His contract with the Turkish champions extends until 2028. Despite previous assurances of trust from the club's leadership, his current performance has put his future at the club under scrutiny.
