is not for sale and has no interest in leaving, amid rumours
that Manchester City could be set to make an offer.
The Premier League side have long been admirers of the 19-
year-old, who has featured in every Bundesliga game so far
this season.
Reports have claimed that City could be set to offer around
£40 million for the Germany international, though Manuel
Pellegrini dismissed any links by insisting his midfield is
already "complete".
And Tonnies maintains there is no chance a move will
happen any time soon.
"We've decided Leroy isn't for sale," he told Recklinghauser
Zeitung. "And the player does not want to leave Schalke. So
that’s not an issue."
Schalke's general manager Horst Heldt has already
dismissed the idea of the club's hand being forced by a
huge bid, having claimed that no team can afford him.
Sane, who has scored four goals in 17 league games this
term, has been described as a player with a "special gift" by
Germany coach Joachim Low.
