Al Ittihad and Al Hilal are set to offer deals to Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan, according to a report from Italy.
Gundogan, 32, has a little over a week left on his contract but he is yet to decide whether he will be leaving Manchester City this summer.
The German midfielder has also been at the centre of a transfer tussle between Arsenal and Barcelona as the two big clubs eye reorganising their midfield options this summer.
Pep Guardiola is pushing the club to do everything in their power to extend the German international’s contract. A decision from the former Borussia Dortmund midfielder is expected imminently.
According to Tutto Mercato, Al Ittihad and Al Hilal are ready to table offers worth a whopping €35 million annually to Gundogan, which is the equivalent of £577,000-a-week.
Saudi Arabian outfits are eager to conclude a spate of remarkable deals during the ongoing transfer window amid the Gulf country’s plans to be on an equal footing with European leagues.
The Middle East nation has already roped in several top names like Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante, while more players such as Ruben Neves, Edouard Mendy, Hakim Ziyech, and Sergio Ramos are expected to follow.
