Manchester City have confirmed the departure of club legend Ilkay Gundogan, who has joined Galatasaray on a free transfer just one year after returning to the Etihad from Barcelona.
Ilkay Gundogan could be heading for a surprise move to Turkey as Galatasaray close in on a deal to sign the veteran midfielder from Manchester City. The 34-year-old only returned to the Etihad last summer after a spell at Barcelona, but with Pep Guardiola reshaping his midfield, Gundogan now looks set to depart once again and talks are advancing with the Turkish side.
Ilkay Gundogan might head back to the Bundesliga as Manchester City are ready to offload him.
Ilkay Gundogan's agent has refuted rumours that the Manchester City midfielder could be shipped off to Turkey to help fund Pep Guardiola's squad rebuild. Gundogan has been strongly linked with a move to Galatasaray this summer. The Germany international returned to City last season after spending a year at Barcelona.
