Leroy Sane shows off new haircut after ditching Afro ahead of World Cup
Germany winger has had an amazing season at the Etihad, helping Manchester City ease to the Premier League title
LEROY SANE is heading for the World Cup with a new look.
The Germany winger has had an amazing season at the Etihad, helping Manchester City ease to the Premier League title.
He also won the PFA Young Player of the Year award and is tipped to star at Russia 2018.
However, he is expected to wait until after the campaign with Germany to thrash out terms over a new long-term deal.
It is understood City want to boost the 22-year-old's wages from around £60,000-a-week to £100,000-a-week.
And he appears worth the pay rise after a stunning season that should see him start in Joachim Low's team.
