A week on from the Champions League final and Ilkay Gundogan still hasn’t committed his long-term future to treble winners Manchester City.
Granted, he hasn’t given Barcelona the nod either, but it’s worth considering in the meantime just what he would bring to the club were he to be signed.
After all, many culers that contribute their comments to this platform suggest that the German is a signing we can do without given that we’ve got Frenkie, Gavi and Pedri as a potential first choice midfield three.
That trio may or may not be Xavi’s preference in the middle of the park, and even if it is, what kind of squad depth do we realistically have now that Sergio Busquets has departed?
