Leroy Sane and Carney Chukwuemeka earned well-deserved spots on the Kicker team of the day after standout performances in the Bundesliga.
On the 28th matchday, Bayern Munich faced FC Augsburg, and Vincent Kompany’s squad walked away with a 3-1 victory. The win gave them a much-needed boost ahead of their looming Champions League clash.
Sane didn’t find the net or set up a goal, but his presence on the pitch against Augsburg was undeniable. He controlled the game’s tempo and showcased his skill, catching the attention of Kicker’s selectors.
Bild reports suggest the forward is on the verge of signing a long-awaited contract extension with Bayern, cementing his future with the German giants.
Meanwhile, Chukwuemeka marked his first start for Bayern against SC Freiburg with a bang, scoring his debut goal. The young talent’s breakthrough added spark to the squad. Next up, Bayern face Inter Milan in the Champions League quarter-finals on Tuesday a match Sane is likely to feature in.
