Manchester City midfielder İlkay Gündoğan is close to continuing his career in Germany. The 34-year-old player has not been part of Pep Guardiola’s future plans and therefore wants to leave the team. The German footballer may return to the Bundesliga: he has already reached an agreement on a personal contract with Bayer, and now the parties only need to agree on the transfer fee — that’s all.
According to the source’s information, if this scenario comes to fruition, the midfielder who poses a threat to the opponent will once again have the opportunity to play in his home country’s league. The decisive part of the deal — the amount of the transfer payment between the clubs — once coordinated is expected to formalize the transfer.
For information, Gündoğan played for Manchester City in 2016–2023 and 2024–2025. In total, he took the field in 358 matches for the team, scoring 65 goals and providing another 47 assists. These figures once again confirm his intellectual play in the center, speed of decision-making in key moments, and leadership qualities. And now all doors depend on the numbers between the clubs: if the valuations align, a new page will begin.
