The Athletic: Talks have taken place between Arsenal and 29-year-old winger over possible summer deal — Saudi Arabia also an option

Arsenal have reportedly held talks over a potential summer move for Leroy Sané as they explore multiple winger options.
 

The 29-year-old Bayern Munich forward could leave the club this summer, with his current contract set to expire.

Several clubs across Europe have been linked with Sané, who would be available on a free transfer — including Arsenal.

Recent reports from both England and Germany claim that the Gunners have opened discussions to sign the Germany international ahead of the summer transfer window.

Now, the reliable The Athletic confirms that talks have indeed taken place between Arsenal and Sané.

Mikel Arteta's side are looking to strengthen their wide options this summer, and Sané is among several targets under consideration.

According to The Athletic, the Bayern winger has also attracted interest from Saudi Arabia. Should he leave the Bundesliga champions, Arsenal remain a realistic option.

It remains to be seen whether Sané will extend his stay at Bayern, with reports suggesting his family is settled in Munich.
