Ilkay Gündogan wants to end his career at Barcelona. This is the latest news published by the Spanish media and it seems that the former Manchester City midfielder could leave the Camp Nou within this window. For a long time now, there have been reports that Gündogan is not happy at Barcelona, and feels disappointed with his personal treatment, as well as with the club's prospects for the future.
Despite the fact that the German was one of the most distinguished players at Barcelona last season, the Catalan club has not expressed the fact that if the right financial offer knocks on the door, they will not hesitate to sell Gündogan. The latter did not travel with the team in the transfer to Valencia, which Barcelona won 2-1. The club justified Gündogan's absence with a physical problem. However, it is already clear that tensions between the player and Barcelona have increased.
According to the prestigious Sport, the player himself has asked the board to leave and coach Hansi Flick has also been informed of his request. In Europe, but not only, there is a large number of clubs that are monitoring the situation of the player of Turkish origin. In Turkey, the president of Galatasaray has expressed several times his personal desire to bring Gündogan to the team. Fenerbahce has also communicated that if the operation can be carried out, it will launch an attack for the midfielder.
On the other hand, offers have not been missing from Saudi Arabia either, since last season, many Arab clubs have expressed their interest in Gündogan. At the moment, it is not yet known what will be the position that Barcelona will take regarding the German. Gündogan is one of the key players at Camp Nou, but with the arrival of Dani Olmo this summer, the former City midfielder cannot be considered irreplaceable.
