Manchester City captain Ilkay Gundogan has said that he is yet to make a decision on his future amid the ongoing speculation surrounding a possible summer move.

Manchester City captain Ilkay Gundogan has said that he is yet to make a decision on his future amid the ongoing speculation surrounding a possible summer move.

The 32-year-old has captained the Citizens to a historic treble this season, with Pep Guardiola's side lifting the Champions League on Saturday night courtesy of a 1-0 win over Inter Milan in the final.

Gundogan only has a contract at the Etihad Stadium until the end of June, though, and he continues to be heavily linked with a move away from the club.

Barcelona are thought to be the favourites to sign the midfielder on a free transfer, while Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund are also being credited with an interest.

Gundogan has said that he has not yet made "a final decision" on his future, with the midfielder now expected to consider the offers on the table following the European Cup final.

"I have not made a final decision on my future yet," Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano quotes Gundogan as saying in the aftermath of Man City's Champions League success.

Rodri's second-half goal proved to be the difference between the two teams in Istanbul, and Gundogan has admitted that his side found it difficult to reach their top level during the final.

"It's a Champions League final, it was clear it was going to be difficult, for both teams," Gundogan told BT Sport. "We weren't at our best in the first half, we were a little hesitant even though we had a couple of good chances.

"We knew we had to do better in the second. I think that's what we did but it was probably a 50/50 game and just today one goal made the difference as probably many times in finals and we feel very fortunate that it was for us.

"It's an unbelievable night, we are so happy. It's difficult to put into words what just happened. I think today we made history.

"We knew everyone was talking about the treble and especially after that FA Cup final., the pressure was there but I think this team is built to deal with the pressure in the best possible way and I think it's what we did."

Gundogan has now won five Premier League titles, two FA Cup crowns, four EFL Cups, two Community Shields and the Champions League during his time in Manchester.

The midfielder arrived at the Etihad Stadium from Dortmund in 2016, and he has represented the club on 304 occasions in all competitions, scoring 60 goals and registering 40 assists.

Gundogan has played a key role in Man City's treble success this term, meanwhile, scoring 11 goals and registering seven assists in 51 appearances in all competitions.
