- 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.
