Barcelona fans generally seem unhappy with him leaving as one said he was their best player last season. Read he had the most chances created and was in team of the season but seems typical amateur hour at Barcelona with not paying monies owed, buying players they cannot register, wanting everything for nothing as they are skint then blaming his wages being a reason they are happy to let him go, the wages they gave him to join.Ilkay Gundogan transfer: Manchester City close to re-signing midfielder from Barcelona
Ilkay Gundogan is in the UK finalising his return to Man City from Barcelona on a free transfer; the 33-year-old will undergo a City medical on Thursday with the German set to sign a one-year deal plus the option of a further year; Gundogan has ignored interest from Saudi Arabia and Qatarwww.skysports.com
Getting nearer.
Yea 100% agree.To my mind, that deal makes perfect sense.
Gündod doesn’t seem to have slowed down at all in the 12 months he’s been away, and there’s no suggestion that he will, during this season.
But the option is a no-brainier for both sides.
That first sentence says it all. The fact the fans of club he is leaving are unhappy about it, tells us straight away what a clever bit of business this is.Barcelona fans generally seem unhappy with him leaving as one said he was their best player last season.

Very hard to take that club seriously anymore
Also, Ilkay is the very epitome of a team player, whereas with PR37, it’s all about him.Big difference is that Gundogan (age 33) is coming back to just join the City squad whereas Ronaldo (age 36) was brought back to lead the United team. Another key difference is that we're looking for a player of Gundogan's profile whereas United already had a set XI and completely switched things up to accommodate Ronaldo.
Get rid.:-)Best/funny article i read last night was that his wife didn't like living in Barcelona from day one.
And that it was her who suggested the move back here!
(god is that women happy living anywhere!)
How do you know Brokelona is one of his boyhood clubs?Gundo is still a highly influencial player and I don't think he is going to expect to play a perhipery part at City. He has retired from international football so that is one less demand. Rightly or wrongly he publically shamed his former teamates at Barcelona and that has probably ended his short spell at his one of boyhood clubs.
What has city bringing back a brilliant intelligent team player got to do with them re signing that cross dressing self obsession tosserI am not arsed on that. I do get things wrong. I have admitted that. United thought they would get the same player after his spell at Juventus and they were just as excited as Gundo's return is my point as well.
