I'm sure he never said that,Milan's offer is a loan deal + option to buy for 30M and no one will take him if there is no option to buy,it would be a pointless loan for any club.

He literally said that at the press conference. 

«Wenn, dann würden wir diesen Spieler maximal ausleihen für ein Jahr. Denn wir sind nach wie vor überzeugt, dass das ein brauchbarer, guter Spieler für Bayern München werden kann»

which translates to :

"We would send him out on loan for maximum one year because we are convinced he can become a good and useful Bayern player,"

He would certainly have a better opportunity of picking up meaningful minutes here than he would this season at Bayern. 

Kante and Bakayoko are obviously the two first choice midfielders, but we don't know exactly how well they'll play together or if Bakayoko is going to struggle with fitness. Sanches, more so than Fabregas or Baker, fits the mold a bit better as a like for like replacement. 

I'm not entirely on board with a loan, however, a lot can change over a season. It's possible he could arrive for a year and then tell Bayern he's not interested in returning to Munich.

"There are at least 10 teams after Sanches," Rummenigge told Italian publication Gazzetta dello Sport.

Hazard saga.

£40m for someone that wouldn't be a guaranteed starter. Money would be better spent elsewhere

[GQman2121 17]

Ten teams is bullshit. It's in his best interest as Bayern Chairman to appear to have competition for one of his assets. It's likely half that number if not less.

Replacing Matic with Sanches basically. I wouldn't say no to that in all honestly but I hope we get him on Loan first with an option to buy.

That would be a luxury IMO. Pasalic could easily fill that role & save us £40m~.

Would be fantastic if we do exactly what Bayern have done with 2 players this summer. Loan with the option to buy for a set price next summer like theyve done with James and Douglas Costa.

And Coman.  That was a really good piece of business for Bayern too.

I don't think so. If its a loan deal 10 teams sounds about right for a CM of his pedigree.

Love the avatar btw!

He is better than any of our CMs and would fit in a 2 man midfield better than Fabregas or Kante.

He has the potential to be better but better now? No. To say he is better than our current midfielders when he's nowhere near a finished article is just ludicrous. If he is as good as you're making him out to be, then why hasn't he gotten more minutes at Bayern? Why are Bayern looking to loan (or even sell) him? On top of that, Sanches' future has been uncertain for some time now. If we really wanted him, we would have gone for him way earlier in the summer. The fact that we're looking at potentially signing him at this point and especially after signing Bakayoko suggest he'll be a backup.

[Sideshow Luiz 2,310]

Loan with option to buy would be great, IMO.  I'm certainly more excited about this rumour than I am about Barkley.

In fact, when the stories started going around that Bayern may let Sanches leave, I was a little disappointed that we weren't among the teams interested.

Kante, Baka, Sanches, Fabregas feels a bit like Vidal, Pogba, Marchisio, Pirlo.  Flexibility for a number of midfield shapes and formations.  

[akgw13 867]

A 1 or 2 year loan with option to buy is ideal, but Bayern normally get what deal they want in the market.

I am a big believer of his talent, I think Bakayoko/Sanches/Kante/Fab would be a stunning midfield this year and moving forward. Sanches has that bit of offensive game that he could play next to Kante or Baka in a 2 or form a really nice 3 with Fab/Sanches/Kante(or Baka) as he develops he could turn into a really great complete b2b. The key is to sign him, not loan, and let Conte get to work on his confidence. Plus we don't have that b2b type player in our youth program either.

It's still a shame we don't have faith in our youth instead we buy talent who are the same age. I am positive we must have similar talent, but they're just not getting chances and it's frustrating.
