Leroy Sane's Man City career could be over as his replacement is 'revealed'

- Leroy Sane who has registered 10 goals and 10 assists for Man City this season could be told to leave the club due to his poor attitude

- The relationship between Sane and his manager Guardiola is thought to be strained

- Sane, 23, has started just 21 times in the Premier League this season

Last season’s PFA young player of the year Leroy Sane could be offloaded during the summer by Manchester City due to his poor attitude.

According to a report on The Sun, Man City manager Pep Guardiola is running out of patience with the German star, and his attitude in training is one major factor the Citizens hierarchy are already searching for a potential replacement.

Despite being one of the only three players in Man City squad to have registered 10 or more goals and 10 or most assists in the Premier League this season, Sane who was a £37 million signing from Schalke in 2016, has started just 21 times in the league.

The 23-year-old German has played second fiddle in most games this season to Bernando Silva, a surprise retrogression from last season, where he played a huge role in Man City’s road to winning the league title with a record 100 points.

Sane was rewarded with the PFA young player of the year award for his effort after scoring 13 goals and providing 14 assists across all competitions last season which was only just his second season with the club.

It is understood that City Director of Football Txiki Begiristian is reportedly scouting Benfica’s wonder-kid Joao Felix as a potential replacement for Sane.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
