Here's your Manchester City headlines for the evening of Monday, June 5.
Gundogan's agent responds to rumours midfielder has agreed new contract
Ilhan Gundogan, the uncle and agent of Manchester City club captain Ilkay Gundogan, has denied that his client has signed a new deal with the club.
The Germany international scored both goals in Saturday’s 2-1 FA Cup final win over Manchester United, including the opener after just 12 seconds - the quickest-ever in the competition’s showpiece.
He now has six goals in his last six matches. His recent flourish of form has cast doubt over rumours that he is set for an Etihad exit with his contract expiring this month amid links with Barcelona.
Laporte's City playing time admission amid transfer uncertainty
Aymeric Laporte refused to answer a question over his Manchester City future, but did admit to being unhappy at his lack of playing time this season.
With Manu Akanji arriving in the summer and Nathan Ake performing well all season, Laporte has found games harder to come by this term and has slipped down the defensive pecking order. He has just 24 appearances from a possible 60 this season, although he has been injured or unavailable for 16 of those, and has been an unused substitute more times than he has started.
Laporte has begun just nine of the last 24 games he has been available for, all of which coming in fixtures before or after key matches in the title race, FA Cup or Champions League knockout rounds.
