In the summer of 2023, the 32-year-old Gundogan was full of ambition and standing at the top of his life - in the just-concluded 2022/23 season, as captain, he led Manchester City to the top of Europe. , achieved the coveted triple crown.
At this time, Gundogan is the captain of the new Triple Crown, the key player in Guardiola's tactical map, and the benchmark of modern midfielder ... and his contract with Manchester City has also expired.
Manchester City naturally did not hesitate to be generous to the meritorious captain. They made an exception and offered a 1+1 contract, and the annual salary increased to 12 million euros...after tax. It stands to reason that the captain's glory, core status, and support from the fans are enough for Gundogan to choose to stay.
However, the all-pervasive Barcelona once again targeted Manchester City with its "free prostitution", but this time it was not the Bernardo that Barcelona had always been thinking about, but Gundogan. Gundogan, whose talent is by no means top-notch and whose commercial value is limited, has the simplest "Ersa dream" buried deep in his heart. He might have thought it was too high to reach before, but after his peak performance in the 2022/23 season, he feels The time has come.
Although the annual salary offered by Barcelona is only 9 million euros, the 2+1 contract and the doubled annual salary promised by to are still accepted by Gundogan, who has the "Elsa dream" in mind.
Barcelona has sunshine and beaches that Manchester cannot match. This is really a tempting advantage. Gundogan's dream came true and he wore the red and blue jersey and quickly became the core of Barcelona. He played 51 games in his first season, started 45 games, scored 5 goals and 14 assists... This performance was worth it even if Barcelona did not pay for it in vain.
After the European Cup stopped in the quarter-finals, Gundogan announced his retirement from the German national team and stopped being the captain. He was ready to devote the rest of his life to his dream and to Barcelona, even if it was just 1+1...
However, this was only A year later, Barcelona's attitude towards Gundogan took a 180-degree turn - "Little Tiantian" turned into "Mrs. Niu" in the blink of an eye... This summer window, Barcelona made 5 offers and ended with It cost 62 million euros to poach Olmer, the European Cup golden boot, from Leipzig. It must be noted that Barcelona's initial offer was also for nothing.
Olmer is here, but according to the rules of La Liga's salary cap, he has to register.
Since La Liga introduced the salary cap system, Barcelona has taken over all the laughter when registering for La Liga every season, and this season is no exception - Olmer, can't register. But no matter what, Barcelona must register Olmer, otherwise it will completely become a laughing stock in football. If it continues to deceive players with feelings and dreams in the future, it will definitely not work.
Barcelona has only one way, to purge the team of high-paid players. Two of the top three players in La Liga's salary list for the new season are De Jong with 37.5 million euros, and Lewandowski with 33.5 million euros second. However, Barcelona will definitely not invite these two people away, nor can they sell them.
As a result, Barcelona set its sights on Gundogan, the third highest paid player in the team and seventh in La Liga. According to Barcelona's stepped annual salary for Gundogan, Gundogan's annual salary will rise to 16.6 million euros this season. Therefore, no matter what the sweet words were last summer, this summer is destined to be miserable and cold.
Although there have been rumors that Barcelona wants to cleanse itself, Gundogan still firmly believes that they are just rumors that follow the trend. However, in the first round of La Liga, Barcelona did not sign him up at all. At that moment, even though Gundogan was "silly and sweet", he understood.
I have to say that Barcelona is the founder of the prostitution world. Gundogan’s latest transfer value in Germany is 15 million euros, and Barcelona’s price tag is 10 million euros. This offsets the salary paid and earned a difference of 1 million euros. Gundogan also finally had a hard time - he can leave the team, but he must be a free agent. In this regard, give up the idea of prostitution in Barcelona and return to Manchester City.

The cruel battle between dreams and reality, this is the dream being shattered, but if Gundogan returns to Ittihad, I wonder if he will be in a trance or confused?
