Kevin De Bruyne has made a shock director about his future after he confirms that he will leave Manchester City at the end of the season.
The contract of the Belgian midfielder is going this summer and revealed last week that he will leave the Etihad after a decade.
He rolled back on Saturday with a wonderful version to inspire Pep Guardiola's side to a 5-2 victory over Crystal Palace in the race for Champions League football next season.
De Bruyne scored a free kick and then assisted Mateo Kovacic after City had gone two goals in the first half.
And then the 33-year-old revealed that he is open to another Premier League side, but still has to decide.
He told Valplay: 'What project is available, I am willing to listen. I love football. I love playing football and when AA nice projects come, and my family is good with that, then we can make a decision. '
When asked if the willingness would remain in England, De Bruyne replied: 'I don't know. It couldn't be. It is very difficult because the decision to leave is not long, so nothing can be decided in a week.
'In the football world I don't think everything will come within a week. It goes very slowly. I have not even seen my family since the announcement. '
De Bruyne had a serious interest of the Saudi Pro League last year, but decided to stay in the city for a 10th campaign.
Now David Beckham Inter Miami is investigating the opportunity to sign him, although Angel Di Maria has also emerged as a potential target and the MLS side cannot land both.
Inter Miami already has the maximum of three designated players – Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba – outside the wage cap of the competition.
But a transfer window in July, prior to the second half of the MLS season, was able to offer room for maneuver.
Saturday's victory over Palace has seen City climb fourth in the race for Champions League spots.
De Bruyne said: 'I want to leave with a Champions League place for this team because they earn it. We have been in the Champions League for the nine, ten years that I have been here, so I hope we can do that for the team next year and I will just try to play good football as I have always done. '
He added: 'I think we started well, had a few chances and out of nowhere we are 2-0 and it could have been three. The answer was good. I thought we were generally playing almost a good game, but we gave the risks away and they hit it. The reaction was really good and in the end I think we deserved to win.
'I think it was important to score as quickly as possible and to change the feeling of the game a bit. I didn't think we played so badly, but the score wasn't good at all. We went from there. '
