Barcelona seek special loan option with Man City captain Gundogan

Barcelona and Manchester City captain Ilkay Gundogan are haggling over terms of his proposed summer move.

Jijantes says there is a clause that Barça are proposing which Gundogan has not accepted. The proposal is related with the financial fair play situation that is squeezing the club.

Barça have still problems registering players and proposed a unique clause to protect themselves.

Both in the case of Athletic Bilbao defender Iñigo Martínez, another Bosman target, and Gündogan, they want to sign a clause according to which, in the case of not being able to register either of these players, they would go on loan to another team while earning same amount of money.

Martinez would be willing to sign this clause, which would be a solution in the worst possible scenario, while Gündogan, for the moment, is thinking about it.
