A few days before the Clásico between Barça and Real, the Catalan club’s locker room is divided. Ilkay Gündogan’s media outing, criticizing his teammate Ronald Araújo’s red card, left its mark. During an event with the club yesterday, the Uruguayan defender added fuel to the fire by saying he wanted to keep what he thinks to himself. According to information from Mundo Deportivo, Ilkay Gündogan did not intend to demean one of his teammates and explained himself in front of them. Xavi also tried to clarify the situation, but the two players did not speak.
The German wants to reconnect with his defender in order to clear up the misunderstanding. He will also take advantage of the exposure of the match against Real Madrid to speak publicly. Seen as a locker room leader through his experience, Ilkay Gündogan will also have to respond on the pitch in La Liga. The Barcelonans, 8 points behind Real, must absolutely win at the Bernabeú if they still want to have any hope of winning the championship.
