Ilkay Gundogan has written an open letter to Barcelona fans, explaining his sudden departure from the club.
The 33-year-old has sealed a return to Manchester City only one year after he left as a free agent.
Gundogan has now revealed that he was forced to leave because of Barca’s financial issues.
“Now I am leaving in a difficult situation, but if my departure can help the club financially, it makes me a bit less sad.
“Nevertheless, it’s been a time with incredible experiences and ups and downs—I always wanted to play at Barça, and I am very grateful for a memory and experience that I will remember for my life.
“I wish you the best for the season and for the future. The fans deserve to get this big club back to the world’s best,” the letter read in part.
