Manchester City are reportedly prepared to sell Leroy Sane in the upcoming transfer window amid interest from Bayern Munich.
The German champions are long-term admirers of the winger and made their interest known last summer before a serious knee injury against Liverpool in the Community Shield scuppered the deal.
Bayern have publicly discussed their interest in Sane during his rehabilitation and are expected to revive their interest in Germany international when the window reopens.
Sane will have just one year left on his City deal in June and the Evening Standard report the Blues are willing to negotiate his exit in order to avoid losing him for nothing.
Reports have claimed Bayern will test City's resolve with a £35million bid but City are not willing to lose the forward on the cheap and will only discuss a transfer if he states his desire to leave.
The report adds City would rather see Sane leave on a free transfer than accept Bayern's low offer.
Elsewhere, reports in Italy claim City have held discussions with Brescia over a move for midfielder Sandro Tonali.
The 19-year-old is considered one of the country's brightest prospects and has played a starring role for the Serie A side this season, breaking into the senior Italian national team.
Gazzetta dello Sport believe Brescia owner Massimo Cellino has held talks with City regarding their interest in the youngster but the Blues were informed Tonali has no intention of moving to England.
Paris Saint-Germain were also believed to be interested in the youngster but were told he plans to stay in Italy
