The Manchester City winger is brilliant with the ball at his feet and enjoyed another fruitful season with Pep Guardiola's team. Sane finished the season with the Premier League, the FA Cup and the League Cup trophies. The German registered 16 goals and 18 assists from 47 games in all competitions.
Sane is a typical speedy winger who loves to dribble and also knows his way towards goal. He has been used as a substitute 16 times this season, which has raised doubts on his future.

However, even with Bayern's strong interest in the German winger, Guardiola is reluctant to sell. Because he is aware that Sane is one of those rare breeds of wingers who can instil fear into the hearts of defences when he runs at them.
Indeed, the German has been fantastic during counterattacks, because, once he sets on a run, it is impossible to stop him. Last season, he clocked a top speed of 35.18 km/h, which makes him the 4th fastest footballer in the 2018/19 season.

Deepungsu Pandit
Deepungsu is a veteran football journalist who has been covering daily transfer roundups and news for over six years at Sportskeeda. He has written over 8500 articles for the website, and has garnered over 19.5Million reads.
Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
