Gundogan's move to Barcelona imminent

Ilkay Gundogan has already decided what to do with his future. With a renewal offer to remain at Manchester City and a proposal from FC Barcelona, the midfielder has finally opted for the 'Cules' option after several days weighing up both options.

'Mundo Deportivo' claims that his signing is imminent. FC Barcelona's plan, in fact, is to close the deal on Wednesday. According to this source, there would be no problem in registering the player.

The Camp Nou side believe they will be able to register him in La Liga. The Financial Fair Play will not prevent him from joining Xavi's ranks.

The Sky Blues, for their part, are still dealing with the defeat, as they have tried to keep hold of him until the last minute. 'Sport' adds to this information that in Manchester they consider his departure as a done deal.

Gündogan has already said "yes" to Barca, but the most important thing is missing: the signature. The player had doubts because of the club's delicate financial situation, but with assurances that he can be registered, he is ready to join the Catalan giants.

Barca already missed out on Messi because of the 'Financial Fair Play' and have moved quickly to avoid the same thing happening with the German. Now it remains to be seen if, as the Catalan press suggests, his signing is confirmed in the next few hours. If so, he would arrive for free, as his contract with City ends on 30th June.
