Kane issues plea to Bayern Munich"I'd love for him to stay" at clubTeam-mate linked with Arsenal Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱WHAT HAPPENED?
Kane helped Bayern beat St Pauli at the weekend, and after the match he took the time to praise team-mate Leroy Sane. The 29-year-old is out of contract this summer and amid mounting Arsenal transfer rumours, the England international has sent a message of sorts to the club's board to keep hold of the winger.

He told Bild: "It's obvious that I harmonize very well with him. He has great qualities and terrifying skills. It was a top game from him [against St. Pauli] and great to see how he converted his chances. He often gets into those positions and was ice-cold in front of goal, which is what we need."
On Sane's future, Kane added: "It's not my decision, but the club's. I really like playing with Leroy and would love for him to stay. But that's a discussion between him and the club."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Sane is yet to sign a new deal at Bayern and it seems he could be one of the players the German giants fail to retain for next season. The German international admitted he still has a "fondness" for the Premier League and after nearly five years at Bayern, he may be inching closer to a return to English football.
