Ilkay Gundogan believes Leroy Sane will remain with Manchester City this summer - having had a chat with his current team-mate.
Bayern Munich are keen on bringing the Germany international winger back to the Bundesliga as part of their squad overhaul ahead of next season.
City, however, are in no mood to sell but fresh talks over a new contract with the Treble winners failed to bring a breakthrough.
Mirror Football recently revealed that reports of Bayern having a £70million bid rejected by the Premier League champions are inaccurate.
Etihad bosses are still waiting for contact from Bayern, after their executives Uli Hoeness and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge angered the Manchester side by making their interest in the Germany winger known in newspaper interviews.
Despite the ongoing saga, Gundogan is confident that his German compatriot will remain at the reigning Premier League champions next season.
He told reporters: "I don't know much [about Sane's situation], only a little.
“I also talked to him, but he didn't give me the impression that he really wants to leave. I don't think Manchester City wants to give him up either.
"Since Leroy still has two years left on his contract, there is no reason to take action.
“Therefore, I am assuming that he will stay and I would of course be happy about that."
