45 from bench Gundogan (back) played 45 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 3-2 win over Genclerbirligi.

Impact Gundogan missed the last two UCL matches for Galatasaray, but after using the international break to recover, the midfielder returned in league play for 45 minutes. He will now look to return to his starting role in UCL play as his club seeks a third straight win in the competition, as the German received the nod in their first two games before his injury.

Still out Gundogan (back) will be out until after the international break, according to club doctor Yener Ince.

Impact Gundogan won't be an option for Wednesday's trip to Ajax as he continues his recovery. The midfielder could return for a Nov. 25 clash with Union SG after the break. Leroy Sane could play more in attacking midfield with Gundogan on the sideline.

Suffers back strain Gundogan was diagnosed with moderate strain during the MRI examinations on Thursday, the club announced.

Impact Gundogan missed the game against Glimt in the Champions League due to a muscle strain in his back.

Leroy Sane could see a larger role if Gundogan remains sidelined.

Gundogan joins Galatasaray after 'unforgettable moments' at Man City

Ilkay Gundogan has completed a move from Manchester City to Galatasaray, bringing an end to his second spell with the Premier League club

SEPTEMBER 2, 2025 • Associated Press

Seals move to Galatasaray Gundogan has completed a transfer to Galatasaray from Manchester City, according to his former club.

Impact Gundogan's second stint at City has ended after one season, one he would probably like to forget, with the midfielder now off to Turkey. He had ultimately fallen out of favor with the club as new transfers joined this campaign despite starting in 25 of his 33 appearances last season. This will likely end his time with the club for good, racking in 358 appearances and 65 goals with the club, while winning 14 trophies, including five Premier League titles, a historic treble and captaining a UCL-winning squad. He will now look to see regular minutes while in Turkey, a place where he should still have success and fit the playing style more as he raises in age.

Starting role in return to City Gundogan started in 25 of his 33 appearances while notching one goal on 27 shots and six assists on 44 chances created to go along with 60 crosses in the Premier League.

Impact Gundogan returned to City after one season with Barcelona and was right back where he left the club, starting only two games after returning to the club and not giving that spot up. However, he would see a major drop in his goal contributions with seven compared to his 12 in his last season with the club, as he did have to take on more of a defensive role. He did see an automatic clause triggered for an extra year on his contract and hopes to remain with the club. That said, his future still seems uncertain as the club plans to bring some youth into their midfield.
