Despite having won the highest honors at club level, midfielder Ilkay Gundogan moved to Barcelona after winning the triple with Manchester City last season. However, recent statements suggest that German defenders want more than just money from their teams.
Gundogan has made a startling assertion 307036.
In an interview with Mundo Deportivo, the new captain of the Catalan giants explained why he did not choose to extend his new contract with Manchester City. He stated the following reasons: You are unable to refuse the offer that Barcelona has made in advance. Since I was a young boy, I’ve always had the ambition to be a member of a sports team and contribute to its success. Be advised, Xavier’s leadership is unquestionable; therefore, he will most certainly perform significantly better than that.
“I came here in order to win La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the Champion’s League.” Even though I am 32 years old, the need to prove myself is still extremely strong for me. The challenge in the future will certainly not be easy, but it is something that I always attempt to achieve in order to be successful.
In order to discuss the objective of winning the Champions League title, the former Manchester City midfielder also stated that the quality of the squad alone is not sufficient; the team also has to have a strong mentality and sometimes even a little bit of luck in order to achieve this goal. a really significant engraving. Because Barcelona have been eliminated from the group stage for two consecutive seasons, particularly the most recent season, which took a significant amount of time, this is not a significant issue.
Gundogan has made a startling assertion 307039.
The fact that the player who was born in 1990 can integrate into the playing style of the camp is a great advantage for Gundogan when he comes to Barcelona. Pep Guardiola and Xavi used to be teammates as well as teachers and students, so this is a huge benefit for Gundogan. It’s just a matter of time before we have a new team. merely a matter of time required. In addition to that, he played with striker Robert Lewandowsky while he was at Borussia Dortmund and achieved certain success while doing so; therefore, it will be worthwhile for him to play for Barcelona in the upcoming season.
