Ilkay Gundogan is hoping that Manchester City are able to win more trophies before Sergio Aguero leaves in the summer.
Gundogan joined Man City in 2016 and at this point, Aguero had already been there for five years.
The forward signed for £35m from Atletico Madrid in 2011. He has gone onto establish himself as one of their best ever players.

The forward is now their all-time top scorer having netted 257 times from his 384 outings across all competitions.
Aguero has won the Premier League four times and he has won the League Cup on five separate occasions. He has also lifted the FA Cup once.
Before Aguero leaves this summer, Gundogan told France24 that they want more success:
“He has done incredible things and contributed a lot to us being where we are now.
“We still have him for a few weeks and hopefully we can see him off with some success.
“I still get goosebumps when I see his legendary goal [against QPR] with original commentary.”
After City announced that Aguero was leaving, he insisted that he wishes to win more titles before he goes:
“When a cycle comes to an end, many sensations arise.
“A huge sense of satisfaction and pride remains in me for having played with Manchester City for a whole 10 seasons – unusual for a professional player in this day and age.
“Ten seasons with major achievements, throughout which I was able to become the top historic goalscorer and forging an indestructible bond with all those who love this club – people who will always be in my heart.
“I was to join during the reconstruction era of 2011, and with the guidance of the owners and the contribution of many players, we earned a place among the greatest in the world.
“The task to maintain this well-deserved privileged position will remain on others.
“As for myself, I will continue to give it my utmost for the rest of the season to win more titles and bring more joy to the fans.
“Then, a new stage with new challenges will begin. I am fully ready to face them with the same passion and professionalism that I have always dedicated to continue competing at the highest level.”
