Ilkay Gündogan (32) will apparently join FC Barcelona for the coming season. After the first reports in the afternoon that Gündogan had given the Catalans his commitment and had already completed the medical check, transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano reported in the evening that the German international had already signed the contract.
Market value of Ilkay Gundogan
Accordingly, the club also got the green light to be able to register the midfield star from Manchester City, which had recently caused uncertainty after player transfers due to the salary limits of the clubs set in LaLiga. Gündogan’s contract in England expires after the past season. He can therefore change free of charge. In Barcelona it is about a contract that is initially limited to two years, which can then be extended by another season. A release clause of 500 million euros should also be part of the deal.
