Ilkay Gundogan was one of the unsung heroes in Manchester City's star-studded squad. He kept the midfield ticking over and popped up with the occasional goal and assist, but much of his work went under the radar.
That was until the 2020-21 season when he managed to score 17 goals in all competitions to finish as City's top scorer.
Then on the final day of the 2021-22 season he wrote himself into City folklore by scoring two of the three goals that saw City come from behind to beat Aston Villa and deny Liverpool the league title. And he cemented his status among City fans by scoring both goals in the 2023 FA Cup final win over neighbours United.
So City fans, would you have him back? And if he's available on the cheap, surely he would interest many other top Premier League clubs? After missing out on Martin Zubimendi, it seemed Liverpool were willing to wait until January to bring in a top midfielder, but how about bringing in a ready-made Premier League player such as Gundogan right now?
