After a season spent at FC Barcelona, ​​Ilkay Gündogan (33 years old) is going to leave. Pushed towards the exit by the Culés, who wanted to save money on his salary, the German resigned himself. But he will find a club where he feels good since he has reached an agreement to return to Manchester City. The agreement is even total between all the parties concerned.

This Wednesday, AS reveals the details of this operation. Thus, “Gundo” will sign a one-year contract, plus an optional year, with the Skyblues. The player, under contract until 2026 in Barcelona, ​​will give up his two years of salary. He will therefore join the Mancunians as a free agent.
