Ilkay Gundogan maintains his idea of playing for FC Barcelona. Manchester City is resolutely counter-attacking to try to get the 32-year-old German international midfielder, an important part of Pep Guardiola’s team, to extend a contract that expires on the 30th, but according to German media Sports Bild interior wants to start a new phase in the Spanish League dressed as a blaugrana.
The information indicates that Borussia Dortmund is still dreaming of bringing the player home as a replacement for Englishman Jude Bellingham, who is about to be transferred to Real Madrid. However, Gundogan hopes to play for Barça. Even in recent times his name has been included in the list of expert cracks that the Saudi Arabian League wants to remove from unseen offers.
BTV Portia also stated that Gündogan will earn 4.5 million euros net for each of the three seasons Barça have offered him. As already reported by MD, this contract for three seasons is one of the most convincing arguments they have used since the Camp Nou to attract Gündogan who, on the other hand, is excited to try a new experience in Spanish League. The city proposed a shorter contract.
Focusing on the Champions League finals
His definitive answer, however, is after the Champions League final that City will play this coming Sunday in Istanbul against Inter Milan, a historic goal for the English club that will end a cycle in the best possible way.
Xavi Hernández, the Barça coach, has already insisted in his latest allusions to the culé market that all the footballers he has spoken with want to go to Barça.
