Salif Sané, the Franco-Senegalese midfielder, is set to leave Ligue 1 for the Bundesliga, joining Hanover for the upcoming season. The 22-year-old player has signed a four-year deal with the German club. The transfer is reported to bring Nancy two million euros with bonuses.
Having spent two seasons with AS Nancy-Lorraine, Sané was an integral part of the team. He arrived at Nancy in 2011 from Bordeaux and made 66 league appearances, scoring five goals during his time with the club. This move comes as AS Nancy-Lorraine faces relegation to Ligue 2.
