Manchester City and Ilkay Gundogan have reached a full agreement for the German to re-sign for the Premier League side. Gundogan, 33, will sign a one-year contract with City, with the option of a further 12 months. He will leave Barcelona on a free transfer, just a year after joining them following the expiration of his City contract in June 2023.
In order to facilitate the move, Gundogan is forgoing the remaining two years of salary he would be owed by Barcelona. The third year of his contract was triggered last season when he featured in more than 60 per cent of their games.
Gundogan joined Barcelona last summer, going on to play 36 times in his first season, but was told he was not part of new head coach Hansi Flick’s plans after the German replaced Xavi earlier this summer. The Athletic reported on Tuesday that City were the frontrunners to secure Gundogan’s return, with the midfielder having spoken with Pep Guardiola over a possible return to Manchester and the manager giving the green light to the move.
