German midfielder Leroy Sane will not help his team in the Confederations Cup.

This summer, Sanya will be forced to lie on the operating table. The player needs surgery on the nose.

"I would like to go to Russia for the tournament, but after consulting with the medical staff, I decided to do the operation. By the new season, I'll come up with no health problems, "- quotes Sanya's official website of the German Football Union.

Earlier it became known that Tony Kroos, Mesut Ozil, Thomas Muller, Mats Hummels, Mario Getze, Manuel Neuer and Jerome Boateng would not go to Russia for the Confederation Cup.

In the group stage of the Confederations Cup, which will be held from June 17 to July 2, the Germans will play with Australia, Cameroon and Chile.
