In 2014, at the age of 19, Leroy made his debut for the German youth team. In a match against representatives of the Netherlands, the young athlete scored the winning goal. In the fall of the following year, he took the field for the main German team, facing the French. In 2017, the athlete became Euro U21 champion, but a year later he was not included in the German national team for the World Championships held in Russia. This fact was considered one of the reasons for the team's poor performance in the tournament.
Later, Leroy Sané had the opportunity to prove himself during Nations League matches. Particularly spectacular was the match against the Dutch national team, where Leroy defeated the famous Virgil van Dijk. In the interview, the winger admitted that his long-held dream was to win the Euro and he decided to focus on winning in 2021. Living up to expectations, Sane scored the 7th goal against Latvia during a friendly match in Düsseldorf. In June, the German national team at the Allianz Arena in Munich lost to France with a score of 0: 1, won against Portugal 4: 2 and tied with Hungary. Leroy managed to try his luck again at Euro 2024. But during a friendly match against the Austrian national team, the German once again got involved in a conflict by hitting Philip Mwene. He received a red card and was then suspended for 3 matches.
