Leroy Sane has praised Vincent Kompany’s leadership and vision amid Bayern Munich’s 16-game winning run this season. The German winger, who played under Kompany last season, believes the Belgian’s influence is already clear at Bayern and expects him to have a brilliant coaching career, while he focuses on his new start at Galatasaray.

Leroy Sane has hinted at a possible return to his boyhood club Schalke, saying he could imagine ending his career where it all began. The former Bayern Munich winger, who made a switch to Galatasaray in the summer, called the idea of a Schalke reunion 'exciting', but admitted that it will not happen anytime soon.

Leroy Sane has experienced a mixed start to life at Galatasaray after joining in a free transfer from Bayern Munich in the summer. Former player Alparslan Erdem, who spent two years at the Turkish heavyweights, has cited former Chelsea and Ajax attacker Hakim Ziyech's example as a cautionary tale, urging the German winger to "get his head straight first."

Former Bayern Munich and Manchester City winger Leroy Sane found himself at the centre of an ugly Oktoberfest bust-up after being “provoked and personally humiliated” inside a crowded beer tent. The Galatasaray star became involved in a brief fight with a fan after being taunted by a group of Bayern supporters late on Sunday night.

Leroy Sane’s surprise move to Galatasaray has drawn heavy criticism from Bayern Munich legend Oliver Kahn, who claimed the winger “doesn’t want to be a top player” despite having all the qualities to dominate at the highest level. The German international left Bayern this summer after five years, turning down a contract extension in favour of a new challenge in Turkey.
