Ilkay Gundogan will not be joining Manchester United this summer.
The Germany midfielder, who has been linked with a move to Old Trafford and Real Madrid, has signed a new deal at Borussia Dortmund.

The 23-year-old has only signed until 2016, however, so speculation about his future is likely to start again as soon as January.
United boss David Moyes is desperate to strengthen his midfield this summer and the Scot will reportedly be handed a massive kitty of up to £200m to rebuild his squad, following a dismal first season at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils have also been linked with Gundogan’s international teammate Toni Kroos and William Carvalho of Sporting Lisbon.
Gundogan is currently injured and is set to miss this summer’s World Cup. But the box-to-box star has been a key part of Borussia Dortmund’s fine form over the past two seasons and scored in last year’s Champions League final.
