Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says winger Leroy Sane is set to depart the Etihad as he "wants to join another club".
The German international has linked with a move to Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich for the last two summers and Guardiola says the former Schalke midfielder has rejected multiple offers to extend his contract at City.
The 24-year-old's current deal will expire in the summer of 2021 and the City boss says they'll either sell Sane in the upcoming transfer window or he'll depart on a free transfer in the summer of 2021.
"Leroy said he doesn't want to extend the contract so it means he wants to leave and it is going to happen this summer or when he is out of contract," Guardiola told reporters ahead of their Premier League clash with Burnley.
"The club have talked to me, they've offered two or three times to extend his contract, he rejected so it means he wants to play in another club.
"If at the end of this season we arrive at an agreement with another club, he is going to leave. If not he will stay one more year and leave when out of contract."
The City manager also confirmed that David Silva and Claudio Bravo have agreed to short-term contract extensions until the end of the current campaign.
