Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola reveals that no progress has been made regarding a new contract for Leroy Sane, whose current deal expires next summer.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Leroy Sane has still not agreed a new contract with the club.

The 24-year-old's current deal expires next summer and he has been heavily linked with a move to Bayern Munich throughout the last two transfer windows.

Sane has not featured for City since the Community Shield in August after sustaining a serious knee ligament injury, but did return to training recently and is now closing in on a long-awaited comeback.

However, talks over an extension to his contract have made no progress since Man City lodged an initial offer last summer.

"The last info I had was that we made him an offer a long time ago and all the time he didn't reject it. So after that I don't have any news," Guardiola told reporters.

"Sane started to train with us, good news, and he moves surprisingly really well, it was nice to see him back.

"He needs a little bit more time I think. But we will see. He started training before the first game against Sheffield [United], two or three weeks ago, so he needs time. We will see."

Sane joined Man City in 2016 and has gone on to make 134 appearances for the club across all competitions, scoring 39 goals.
