Man City Sane DROPPED as Reigning Champions announce final 23-man squad for World Cup

Germany have made the final decision to leave Manchester City winger Leroy Sane out of their squad for World Cup 2018.

Leroy Sane shows out an  impressive season at club level which saw him collect a Premier League and Carabao Cup double.

Leroy Sane bagged 14 goals to the City cause during a record-breaking campaign, while also providing 17 assists across English top-flight and Champions League competition.

He will, however, play no part for his country in Russia this summer after being cut from Joachim Low’s 27-man preliminary party.

With the selection narrowed down to 23 ahead of the defence of a global crown, Germany opted to favour the likes of Paris Saint German winger Julian Draxler and Sebastian Rudy.

Alongside Sane, Bayer Leverkusen duo Bernd Leno and Jonathan also miss out, as does Freiburg striker Nils Petersen.
