Ikay Gündogan He is one of the players who are of great interest to the FC Barcelonadue to its quality and its advantageous market situation, as has been reported MD. an information of The Athletic advanced this Friday as “probable” that the German international midfielder “will move to Spain”, citing as a source “some involved in the negotiations about his future”.
In the same information it was stressed that FC Barcelona “is increasingly interested in signing the Manchester City midfielder”. Barça’s situation in the market is complex because it is pending a drastic reduction in its salary mass, although at the same time it is working on the possibilities of reinforcing its squad trying to balance its sporting needs with its financial ones and with the economic bar of LaLiga. In this context, this summer the Barcelona radar is especially focused on those footballers who meet the famous ‘Barça level’ in terms of their sporting conditions and who, at the same time, can come without having to pay a transfer to their clubs of origin. This also explains, for example, why the name of Gundogan always remains in the top thoughts of the Barça club, because it is an interior that pleases the technicians, even though they had an ideal setting for Bernardo Silvaalso a City midfielder, as an ideal candidate.
Gundogan is 32 years old, but his performance this season, which may be his last at the Manchester club, has been very reliable, with a leading role in 37 games and a balance of four goals and as many assists, for a total of 53 goals in his 290 games as a ‘citizen’ since he arrived from Borussia Dortmund in 2016.
At the same time, the feeling that there is an ever-closer departure for Gündogan also explains why in the City the name of Jude Bellingham as a strategic signing. The 19-year-old English interior of Borussia Dortmund is also a great target for other top-class clubs, such as Real Madrid and Liverpool, and his price will clearly exceed 100 million euros.
