Ilkay Gundogan has been unveiled as a Barcelona player this morning.
The midfielder has joined the iconic Spanish club after winning the treble with Man City last season.
The former City skipper recently explained why he made the switch, revealing it has been a dream since childhood to move to the Nou Camp.
“It’s a dream come true,” Gundogan said. “I remember myself being a child and watching the Barca under Pep and [Frank] Rijkaard, and since then I’m following the club for nearly all the seasons through.
“Obviously, I’ve been here a few times, been at the stadium a few times, I’ve played here and came also as a spectator and now I feel very proud and I’m very happy to be part of this club.
“I expect great football, I think there’s a lot of potential in the team, we have a very young squad and I hope that I can, with my experience, help the younger players to bring them to the next level, I think the base is there, the potential is there, we just need to show it next season and that’s why I came, that’s why I joined.
“I’m full of motivation and dedication.”
