Breaking news, the Champions League-winner who wants to leave Barcelona for Turkey

Barcelona's 2023/24 season has been uneven. After a good start, in which they achieved positive results and showed satisfactory performances, things started to get worse after the defeat in the 'Clasico' against Real Madrid in Montjuic. From then on, the players and especially coach Xavi Hernandez were targeted by the press and fans.

This sparked rumors of all kinds, such as the decision that Deco, the club's sporting director, and president Joan Laporta could take with the manager if things do not go well this season. Some believe that if Los Blaugranas neither win the La Liga title nor compete until the end in the Champions League, Xavi could be sacked next summer.

But apparently he is not the only one who could leave. Turkish journalist Burhan can Terzi revealed this week that Ilkay Gundogan is unhappy with his first few months at Catalunya and is therefore considering a move away next season. In fact, the information he shared is that the player had meetings with Galatasaray chiefs to express his desire to play there in the short term.

This shocked everyone in Spain, as the German midfielder is one of the biggest stars of the team and arrived this season at the express wish of Xavi Hernandez. In fact, he was one of Barcelona's most important signings and arrived with an incredible track record: last season he was one of Manchester City's best players and a key player for the Citizens to win the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup titles.

What will happen to him?

Although people close to Ilkay Gundogan denied that these rumors are true, it is not the first time he has had problems in Barcelona. For several days he was in the news for his harsh criticism of other players of the team after the defeat against Real Madrid, although in the end nothing serious happened with them.
