Sanches found it hard to adjust to life in Germany after a big money move from Benfica. He made just 35 appearances for the club in the Bundesliga across three seasons.

Sanches is ready for another big-money move after revealing past PSG interest
Renato Sanches was a youngster when he moved to Bayern Munich and failed to shine as the move came too quickly.

His season has been blighted by injuries, but he will hope for a better second half of the season.
