Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has given his approval for the return of Ilkay Gundogan this summer.
Gundogan only left the Premier League champions last summer as a free agent.
However, the German midfielder is available to leave Barca and the LaLiga club will not stand in his way.
It is believed his camp have already held initial talks with City over a possible return.
Football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, wrote on X: “Understand Pep Guardiola has already approved Ilkay Gündogan’s return to Manchester City.
“Pep wants Gündo back as talks are now taking place with his camp, first contact made yesterday.
“Decision up to Gündogan as he has proposals also from Saudi/Qatar; Man City, on it.”
