Ilkay Gundogan looks set for a shock move to Turkey, with Manchester City giving him the all-clear to join Galatasaray.
The midfielder, who has barely kicked a ball this season, is weighing up a two-year deal worth around 5m per season. Galatasaray have already prepared travel plans to fly him into Istanbul if he says yes.
Softfootball reported that the Turkish team, which was aiming for Manuel Akanji , has now shifted all attention to the German midfielder. Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano dropped the update on his official X account, confirming that City and Gala have reached an understanding. The only piece left is Gundogan's approval.
