Five-time Premier League winner ready for shock return to Manchester City as Barcelona exit looms
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Ilkay Gundogan has reportedly opened discussions with Manchester City about a potential return, just a year after leaving the Premier League champions for Barcelona, Soccernet.football reports.

The 33-year-old midfielder, who played a pivotal role in City’s historic treble-winning season, now faces an uncertain future in Catalunya.

Despite joining Barcelona with high expectations in 2023, Gundogan is said to be concerned about his role in Barcelona’s new squad as the new season approaches.

The German international finds it increasingly difficult to secure a regular starting spot, and with just a year left on his contract, he is considering his options. Reports suggest Gundogan is keen on a fresh challenge, potentially back at the Etihad.

Contrary to Hansi Flick’s public optimism about Gundogan’s future at Barcelona, behind-the-scenes developments indicate that a return to Manchester is a serious possibility.

According to Spanish outlet Sport, Gundogan reached out to Manchester City officials earlier this week to gauge the club’s interest in re-signing him. The response was reportedly positive, with City open to bringing back their former captain.

Gundogan’s situation has gained significant attention as the transfer window enters its final weeks.

The reports that the five-time Premier League winner has requested to leave Barcelona have intensified speculation over his next move.

Barcelona, facing financial pressures, are unlikely to block a potential exit, especially if it helps them register new players with La Liga and frees up salary space for additional signings.
