German international Ikay Gundogan is set to join Spanish giants Barcelona at the end of the season.
Manchester City owners reportedly feel Ilkay Gundogan will be leaving the club this summer following interest from Barcelona and partly because of his wife. The Spanish giants have been chasing the midfielder since the start of the season.
The 32-year-old is in the final few months of his contract at Manchester City, meaning he will be a free agent at the end of the season.

Reports indicate that while the club is willing to offer him a short-term extension, City has increasingly resigned to losing him for nothing at the end of the season. There’s also been no breakthrough in any negotiations behind the scenes.
Barcelona is likely to be his next destination, a club he has always had affection for due to its culture and style of play. Xavi and Co are also keen on signing Gundogan and strengthening their midfield, with Sergio Busquets likely to leave the club at the end of the season.
His decision to leave the English club is tied to his family priorities. Another reason Gundogan is likely to depart City is his wife Sara Arfaoui, who has grown tired of life in England.
