At a press conference, Sane was asked about his future with Bayern amid interest from the Premier League.
He replied: “I haven’t given it any thought. The club wants to have discussions but at the moment I want to concentrate on the season. Bayern will be my first point of contract, everything else will take care of itself,” he said.
“I am taking on more and more responsibility, on and off the pitch. I really like the role and position at the moment. Julian [Nagelsmann] knows me very well and I want to repay that with good performances.
“I had good preparation and played into a flow. At the moment I'm really enjoying myself at the club and in the national team. I have big goals. Tomorrow will of course be relatively loud.
"Of course we’re looking forward to it. I was able to experience it in the Champions League in Istanbul, but also in Munich. There will be a lot of Turkish fans there and there will be a good atmosphere.”
Liverpool have been putting things in place in case Mohamed Salah does end up leaving the club, with teams in the Saudi Pro League thought to be keen.
The Reds will be in the market for a replacement for their club legend, with Sane among their targets.
