After winning the Champions League, Gündogan will decide his future

In his first season as captain, Ilkay Gündogan reached the pinnacle by winning the Champions League with Manchester City. The German midfielder got his revenge after the disappointments in the 2021 final against Chelsea and last year's semifinals against Real Madrid, playing a key role in the success of Pep Guardiola's team.

While Manchester City savors the glory of their first Champions League title, all eyes are on Gündogan. His contract expires on June 30th, and he must decide whether to renew his contract or leave the club after seven years at the Etihad Stadium. Although a decision is expected soon, the player states that he has not made a decision yet.

Gündogan stated, "It's an incredible night. We are very happy, and it's hard to describe it in words because we have made history." He acknowledged that the team had felt the pressure before the match, with everyone talking about the treble, but he emphasized that the team was prepared to handle that pressure and they showed it.

Respecting Manchester City's celebration for their historic achievement, the midfielder avoided making further comments about his future during the on-field celebration. However, he expressed that it was an "incredible" night and that the team had made history by becoming the second English team to achieve a treble of titles.

<br/>His options

The upcoming days will be crucial in defining Ilkay Gündogan's future. He has the option to extend his contract with Manchester City for one more season with an optional year or join Barcelona as a free agent for the next three seasons.
