Barcelona is reportedly optimistic about signing Ilkay Gundogan from Manchester City in the summer of 2023. The Catalan club has been showing a keen interest in the midfielder for some time, and sources close to the club suggest that negotiations are progressing well.
Gundogan has been a key player for Manchester City since his arrival from Borussia Dortmund in 2016. The German international has been instrumental in the club’s recent success, helping them to win three Premier League titles, one FA Cup, and four League Cups during his time at the Etihad Stadium.
Despite Gundogan’s importance to Manchester City, Barcelona is hoping to tempt the midfielder to make the switch to the Camp Nou. The Spanish giants are in the market for midfield reinforcements and see Gundogan as a perfect fit for their style of play.
Barcelona’s interest in Gundogan has been well-documented, and reports suggest that the club has been in contact with the player’s representatives for some time. The midfielder is said to be open to the idea of a move to Barcelona, and negotiations are progressing well.
