Gundogan´s agent denies Man City captain has agreed Barca move

Ilkay Gundogan’s agent has denied reports that the Manchester City captain has agreed to join Barcelona.

Gundogan has just over two months remaining on his City contract, and it has been reported he is set to join Barca as a free agent on a two-year deal with the option of a further 12 months.

However, Ilhan Gundogan, the 32-year-old’s uncle and representative, has rubbished suggestions the Germany midfielder has already decided to join the LaLiga leaders.

He told AS: “I’m surprised where the stories about an agreement being closed many weeks ago come from.

“There is still no agreement with any club. It has not yet been decided where he will play in the coming years.”

He added: “Ilkay can still win three big trophies this season as Manchester City captain. That’s the only thing he’s focused on right now.”

Gundogan has won four Premier League titles since joining City from Borussia Dortmund in 2016, also lifting the EFL Cup four times and the FA Cup in 2019.
