Ilkay Gundogan will stay with the team, according to Hansi Flick, the manager of Barcelona. Not only that, but he made it clear that Gundogan wasn’t playing against Valencia because he wasn’t fully fit.
“I suspect Gündogan will remain with us.” After the game, the manager told Mundo Deportivo, “He wasn’t fully fit to play today.”
“He was hurting very much.” “I told him about it, but that’s between us and not you,” Flick disclosed.
Many people have been wondering what will happen to the 33-year-old player since he wasn’t on the team for the La Liga game against Valencia.
Gundogan wasn’t in the group, which surprised a lot of people and led to rumors that the experienced midfielder might be moving.
His being kicked out was seen as more than just a safety measure, since he knew a lot and brought in a lot of money for the club.
There were a lot of theories that his quiet could have meant something more, and one of them was that the big Catalan teams were probably thinking about getting rid of the German player.
It looks like Gundogan is not leaving.
It wasn’t long before reports spread that Barcelona wanted to get rid of Gundogan to save money on wages.
Freeing up pay space for Gundogan’s possible departure seemed like a good way for the club to get new players like Dani Olmo.
Barracuda Universal has learned from Gundogan’s camp that the player has not said that he wants to leave Barcelona.
Gundogan even ended the reports even more by posting a positive message on social media after Barcelona’s 2-1 win over Valencia.
“Crucial win in the first game of the season—good job!” The word “Vamos” showed that he still cared about the team and was pleased with the result.
Flick thinks Gundogan will be very important to his plans going forward because he was one of Barcelona’s best players last season.
If you heard that he was leaving, some fans might have been worried. But Flick’s latest comments and Gundogan’s deeds show that he is not going anywhere.
