Gundogan is set to become a father for the second time.
İlkay Gündoğan and his gorgeous wife, Sara Arfaoui, are set to become parents for the second time.
Eighteen months after welcoming their first child, Kais, the couple joyfully announced the news on Instagram.
In a heartwarming post featuring the Man City legend and his wife Sara cradling her baby bump alongside their first born, the couple captioned the image: “Dreaming of you.”
The post quickly garnered attention from fans and friends, with Manchester City teammates and their partners sharing their congratulations.
Sasha Rebecca, partner of Gündoğan’s teammate Jack Grealish, who is also expecting twins, commented: “So happy for you guys,” while Riyad Mahrez’s wife, Taylor Ward, excitedly wrote: “Can’t wait.”
İlkay Gündoğan and Sara Arfaoui’s relationship
Gündoğan, 33, and Sara Arfaoui, 29, have been together since early 2021, although they managed to keep their relationship private for several months.
It wasn’t until July 2021 that they publicly confirmed their love, with Sara first sharing the news on Instagram.
The couple got married in 2022 and have since welcomed their first child, further strengthening their bond.
Gündoğan, of Turkish descent, and Sara, of Moroccan descent, are a power couple known for their low-profile but deeply affectionate relationship.
The former Germany international returned to Manchester City in the summer of 2024 after a one-year stint with Barcelona.
Gundogan played his last Euros for Germany this summer, before announcing his retirement after the tournament as the hosts were eliminated in the round of 16 stages.
Since his return to the Premier League, the former Barca star has made four appearances for the league leaders so far.
