  • Ilkay Gundogan’s wife has released a scathing statement on social media regarding speculation surrounding the midfielder’s Manchester City’s future
  • Gundogan has been heavily tipped to leave the Etihad at the end of the season, despite one year left on his current deal
  • The midfielder was reportedly left very angry at the timing of a report that he took a private jet to Madrid earlier in the week

Manchester City midfielder Ilay Gundogan’s wife Sara Arfauoi Gundogan has decided to clear up the rumours surrounding her partner’s future with a stunning announcement.

The pair unanimously took to social media to announce they had recently got married, going further to dismiss reports linking the midfielder with a move away from Manchester City.

Recent reports suggested that Manchester City were ready to cash in on the midfielder, despite his contract running up to 2023.

It was further claimed that Gundogan had taken a private jet to Madrid, sparking rumours that he had perhaps began transfer talks.

Manchester City had earlier insisted that no decision on the former Borussia Dortmund star would be made until the end of the season, but that did not stop the rumor mill from spinning.

“We are married”

Through an Instagram post, Gundogan’s wife announced the pair had tied the knot as she slammed initial transfer reports.

"We are married, we are really happy. We wanted to keep it private but unfortunately after this fake news about my husband (Ilkay), I felt forced to say the truth." The Instagram post read.

The post was typically flooded with congratulatory messages from players and fans, and the initial tag seemed to suggest the couple was in Copenhagen, Denmark.
