Goodbyes are never easy.
One can assume it certainly wasn’t for Leroy Sane, who said farewell to Bayern Munich fans in a video posted on social media on Thursday, as the German winger moves closer to completing a switch to Turkish side Galatasaray.
Turkish Super Lig champions Galatasaray had earlier stated that they had started transfer talks with Sane and that the 29-year-old Germany international was in Istanbul.
He would be joining Galatasaray as a free agent, with his Bayern deal expiring at the end of June.
Dear Bayern fans,after 5 intense years here in Munich, I’ve decided to start a new chapter in the upcoming season. I’m incredibly proud to have worn the jersey of the best and biggest club in Germany for over 200 matches and will always cherish the titles we’ve won together.… pic.twitter.com/qPPufPmWGR— Leroy Sané (@leroy_sane) June 12, 2025
“Dear Bayern fans, after 5 intense years here in Munich, I’ve decided to start a new chapter in the upcoming season,” Sane stated in his farewell message on X.
“I’m incredibly proud to have worn the jersey of the best and biggest club in Germany for over 200 matches and will always cherish the titles we’ve won together.”
“Thank you to the club, the coaching staff, everyone behind the scenes, my teammates, and especially you, the fans, for the time we’ve shared and the memories we’ve made. I will forever be grateful for my time here at FC Bayern!” he concluded.
Sane joined Bayern in 2020, signing a five-year deal from English side Manchester City, where he won the Premier League title in 2018 and 2019.
With the Bavarians, the German winger went on to win the Bundesliga four times, including the most recent campaign, as well as two DFL-Supercups, one UEFA Super Cup, and a Club World Cup.
Sane, capped 70 times for Germany, has bagged 61 goals and registered 55 assists in 220 appearances for Bayern in all competitions.
