Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola has praised Schalke youngster Leroy Sane ahead of Saturday's trip to the Veltins Arena.
Pep Guardiola has warned Bayern
Munich cannot afford to focus solely on Leroy Sane when the
Bundesliga champions take on Schalke on Saturday.
The
19-year-old has been in sublime form for the Gelsenkirchen side in
2015-16, scoring four goals in 12 league appearances and setting up
three more.
Nevertheless, Guardiola has stressed the young winger is not Schalke's only attacking threat.
"Sane
is a huge talent and I can only congratulate Germany to have a talent
like him. But there is more to Schalke than Sane," said the Bayern
head coach.
"They have a lot of interesting and
dangerous players up front. There's Max Meyer, Franco Di Santo and
Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting. It will be a difficult game for us. They have a
lot of quality.
"Schalke's recent results have
not been good [six games winless in all competitions], but that only
makes them even more dangerous. They have a lot of quality, irrespective
of their position in the league table.
"We were unable to beat them last season. Schalke are always a dangerous opponent."
Schalke held leaders Bayern to a 1-1 draw both at home and away in 2014-15.
