Ilkay Gündogan Nearing Move to Galatasaray
Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gündogan is close to completing a free transfer to Galatasaray, according to sources. The 34-year-old is expected to sign a two-year contract with the Turkish club.
Background and Recent Performance
Gündogan returned to City last summer after a stint at Barcelona. Despite making 54 appearances last season, he struggled to replicate his earlier success at the club, winning multiple titles under Pep Guardiola.
Current Situation
Gündogan has not featured in City's recent games and was omitted from the squad in their last match against Tottenham. Galatasaray aims to finalize the deal before Sept. 12 to include him in their Champions League squad.
Transfer Deadline and Champions League Registration
The Turkish club has extra time for signings beyond the Premier League deadline. Galatasaray officials are working to complete the paperwork by Tuesday to register Gündogan for the Champions League competition.
