Barcelona urgently needs money Will Gรผndogan soon play with Ronaldo?
19.08.2024, 22:04
The end of his time in the DFB team – and also the end of his time in the FC Barcelona jersey? The club apparently wants to get rid of Ilkay Gรผndogan – and urgently needs money. Coach Hansi Flick says otherwise, but according to a report, the 33-year-old could be about to be transferred to Saudi Arabia.
After his retirement from the German national football team, Ilkay Gรผndogan is facing an early exit from FC Barcelona, โโaccording to media reports. As Sky reports, the Barรงa management have clearly informed the midfielder that he should leave during this transfer window.
The Madrid-based trade magazine “AS” reported that the new coach Hansi Flick, who knows Gรผndogan well from their time together in the DFB team, does not see him as a regular player. The former national coach reportedly told sporting director Deco that Gรผndogan does not fit into his game concept.
Gรผndogan was absent from the 2-1 opening victory against FC Valencia last Saturday. According to Flick, he had problems with a cut that he sustained in the botched dress rehearsal against AS Monaco (0-3). Flick also said after the game that he had the feeling that Gรผndogan would stay. He values โโthe 33-year-old very much. That doesn’t sound like he wants to get rid of him publicly.
According to the Catalan trade newspaper “Sport”, however, the traditional Spanish football club wants to try “to get some money for the transfer of Gรผndogan”. Barcelona urgently needs money for new signings. Dani Olmo, who was signed from RB Leipzig for 55 million euros, has not yet been registered with the league. In addition, the Spanish European champion Nico Williams is still to be signed by Athletic Bilbao. The Arabic portal “365scores” reported that the Catalans have offered Gรผndogan to the Cristiano Ronaldo club Al-Nassr.
Gรผndogan’s agent and uncle Ilhan had stated on August 8 that although there was interest from some clubs, the player wanted to stay in Barcelona. The Gelsenkirchen native’s contract in Barcelona runs until summer 2026, after he only came from Manchester City on a free transfer in 2023.
According to Sky, a renewed engagement with the English football champions is possible. City are reportedly considering a return of the midfielder. Gรผndogan won the English championship five times and the Champions League once in seven years with Pep Guardiola’s team.

German coach Hansi Flick, Barcelona’s Spanish coach, โโexpects that his partner Ilkay Gundogan will remain in the ranks of the Catalan team this season, despite speculation about his possibility to leave Camp Nou.
Gundogan, the German national team midfielder, moved to Barcelona in 2023, coming from Manchester City, and has a year left on his contract.
Spanish media reports said Gundogan could leave Barcelona, โโfollowing the arrival of Dani Olmo, amid reports of Portuguese coach Jose Mourinho’s interest in bringing him in.
Flick, in press reports after the 2-1 win over Valencia, at the opening of the Spanish League campaign in Barcelona, โโsaid: “He suffered an eye injury on Monday, which is why he stayed at home . He said, โI appreciate him as a player and as a person. I have spoken to him a lot, but it is something between me and him, and we have a good relationship. I know him well. wait.”

Ilkay Gรผndogan is next FC Barcelona’s bitter exit from the Champions League understandably disappointed.
“I’m disappointed, very disappointed. It was in our hands and we gave it to PSG. We gave it to them in the simplest way,” said the German on “CBS Sports”.
Especially the way it is Barcelona The fact that the game slipped away with one leg in the semi-final through negligence, is more than just an insult. The Catalans had to work harder from the 29th minute onwards after a rude foul by Araujo. That broke the neck of “Blaugrana”.
The captain of the German national team criticized his colleague’s approach: “It’s hard to say… but in those crucial moments you have to be sure you hit the ball.”
“I don’t know if he touches the ball or not. But I prefer to concede a goal or even allow a one-on-one. I don’t know if he gets the ball or not reach, but I’ll give it to him. “The goalkeeper has a chance to save the shot or I concede a goal,” continued Gรผndogan.
Obviously it would have been wiser to let Barcola go and risk conceding a goal with a two-goal difference and a full team.
For the 33-year-old it was clear: “If you play with a smaller man so early, the game is over.”
Even before Vitinha’s goal to make it 1-2 (54th), Gรผndogan had something to complain about: “You have to go out there and push him away. We can’t let him shoot, he was completely free. That’s not what we have. The player closest to the ball has to move out and push it away.”
“I think I deserved a penalty. It’s clear that the opponent blocked me. I have that referee he said it was a penalty and instead I got a yellow card,” he also criticizes the performance of the referee. In particular, he talks about the scene in the 63rd minute when he made the – Vitinha’s face in the penalty area.
