The ‘clean’ of Manchester City is still an unknown. Until now, there are few discards that are confirmed in the ‘citizen’ team. One of the most relevant was the recent announcement of Kevin’s departure from Bruyne. However, despite the rumors, the future of Ilkay Gündogan will be different.

After the victory of the City against Crystal Palace, at the press conference, Pep Guardiola was questioned about the permanence of German footballer in the team. To which, the Spanish coach replied: “Gündo has another year of contract, no doubt. I don’t know what will happen in summer, but now he has another year of contract.”

With these statements, it can be confirmed that Gündogan is contemplated in the future plans of the City of Guardiola. At 34, the German midfielder claims to continue at the highest level in the Premier League at least until season 2026.
After finishing his stage at FC Barcelona, Gündogan returned for one more season with the ‘Sky Blues’, but with the possibility of an automatic extension of another year more wearing the City T -shirt. So, the German will be in the ‘new’ template that plans Guardiola for the 2026 season, after a year with bad results.
