Blow for Man United as summer target commits future to Borussia Dortmund
Manchester United target Ilkay Gundogan has committed his future to Borussia Dortmund by penning a new contract with the Bundesliga giants.

The highly-rated German midfielder was attracted interest from a host of top European clubs, including the Red Devils who were reportedly chasing the 23-year-old in January.

But Gundogan has ruled out a summer exit from Dortmund after signing a new contract that will keep him at the club until 2016.

"I am very grateful that my club gives me the opportunity to continue to be part of this special team and this very special environment,” the Germany international told the club's official website:

"I will do everything to be able to help my team-mates again soon and am very optimistic heading into the coming weeks and months."

The news is a huge boost for Dortmund and coach Jurgen Klopp, who is set to lose star striker Robert Lewandowski to rivals Bayern Munich in the summer.-- Camisetas De Alemania

Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc also added: "Against the backdrop of this special injury-related situation we are very happy with this deal and hope that Ilkay will fulfil his full potential for Dortmund in the coming season."--
