Manchester City -midfielder Kevin De Bruyne will say goodbye to the former Premier League champions before he opens conversations with Napoli about a potential move to Italy
The outgoing legend of the city of Manchester City Kevin De Bruyne is in favor of a free transfer to Napoli after taking a decision against the pursuit of a move to another Premier League club.
De Bruyne, 33, confirmed last month that City would not offer him an extension to his current contract, which means that he will bring down the curtain on his decade-long association with the former Premier League champions on Sunday in Fulham.
A large number of clubs are credited with an interest in signing De Bruyne for a free transfer; The Belgian Maestro was even sent an invitation to join Liverpool from the naughty Mohamed Salah.
But it now seems as if De Bruyne will move abroad, where the e -mail reveals that De Bruyne has decided to join Napoli, instead of joining Chicago Fire in the MLS.
It is said that he would like to put pen on paper about a two -year contract with the newly beaten Italian champions, who conquered their fourth Scudetto on Friday. The negotiations are expected to start after the final prime minister League final on Sunday.
Although De Bruyne is strongly connected to a move to the United States, the player himself refused to exclude a rival of the Premier League after he first revealed that City had informed him that they would not expand his contract.
But it appeared earlier this week that De Bruyne had decided to stay in the Premier League and would probably move abroad.
Pep Guardiola, the manager of Manchester City, brought a glowing tribute to one of the most influential players in the history of the club prior to his last game in a sky -blue shirt.

“When the decision is shared and both agree, it is easier. If that is not the case, because Kevin would have liked to stay and the club does not decide to do that, it is always difficult,” Guardiola said.
“They are many years, many days, many training sessions, many games, many pleasures and many bad moments; so many things that come together at a time when you will never be together again.
“Of course they will be there when we see each other, but in the day to day, when you start talking and see that place where he was … Oh God, he is no longer there.”
