Manchester City may struggle to convince Ilkay Gundogan to extend his contract with the club as they’re only offering him a one-year deal.
ESPN report that Manchester City are so far only willing to offer Ilkay Gundogan a one-year extension, as the midfielder considers his future. As it stands, his deal is up this summer.
Barcelona are prepared to hand the midfielder a two-year deal, whilst it’s reportedly unclear what Arsenal are ready to offer.
But ESPN confirm that the Gunners are indeed interested in the signing if Gundogan fails to agree terms with City.
Gundogan’s experience is viewed as a valuable asset to Arsenal, but City haven’t given up hope of convincing him to extend.
They’re attempting to reach a compromise, perhaps involving an initial one-year deal with a 12-month option on top of that.
