Kevin De Bruyne has been one of the best midfielders in recent times in the Premier League.
The success he has in England and the performances he has shown in the past have rightly earned him a legend’s status.
The Belgian international has been one of the best Manchester City players in the history of the club.
But, the 33-year-old has decided to part ways with the club as his contract will end at the end of the season.
Kevin De Bruyne wanted a long-term contract and at his age, Manchester City was reluctant to do so.
Also, De Bruyne has missed 12 games for Man City due to injuries in the recently concluded season.
That is why Pep Guardiola decided to part ways with the player that brought so much success to the club.
Kevin De Bruyne is still one of the best midfielders in Europe.
So, if a player of his profile is available in the transfer market and that too as a free agent, clubs will queue up to sign the player.
This is what is happening with Kevin De Bruyne. He is linked to several football clubs worldwide.
From the Saudi Pro League to MLS to European leagues, a host of clubs are looking to sign the player.
But, the recent comments from the president of a European giant have shed light on the future destination of the former Manchester City captain.
Fabrizio Romano has shared the comments of Napoli president De Laurentiis.
His comments indicate clearly that Kevin De Bruyne is likely to join Napoli next season.
Napoli are the Serie A champions. They won the league on the final day by leaving behind Inter Milan by a point.
De Laurentiis also confirmed that the contracts are not yet signed between the club and the player.
However, if Napoli can sign Kevin De Bruyne, it will be one of the best signings in the history of the club from Naples.
🚨💣 Napoli president De Laurentiis: “I really think Kevin De Bruyne will now JOIN us”.
“I’m told he’s already bought a beautiful house… I spoke to KDB, his wife, his kid this morning, it’s been beautiful”, told Rai.
“Done deal? Until contracts are signed, we must be careful”. pic.twitter.com/inGdeUFwwW
