​Gundogan open minded over agreeing new Man City deal

Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan has been clarifying his position on signing a new contract:

"There is no decision yet otherwise I would have signed or rejected a contract. We are still in talks but I don't feel there is much pressure. One day there has to be a decision but I am very happy here and playing under Pep.

"This is something everyone has to decide for themselves. I am 28 years old so my next contract will maybe decide where I will be for the end of my career. Maybe someone has an inner feeling to go for a new challenge or to change something.

"I am always open-minded for challenges but it is a personal situation. It is not obvious. Everyone has to make his own decision. At the moment I try to play as good as possible and after the season we are going to sit and talk again. My main target is to go for all the competitions."
