Manchester City player Kevin De Bruyne is allegedly being linked with a move to Saudi Pro League team Al Ittihad, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
De Bruyne, who joined Manchester City in the summer of 2015, has been a key player for the club. Throughout his time at the Etihad, he has scored 102 goals and provided 170 assists in 382 appearances across various competitions.
With his contract set to expire next summer, there have been numerous speculations about his future, particularly regarding interest from Saudi Arabia.
However, Romano has tweeted that sources in Saudi Arabia are downplaying the rumors of De Bruyne’s potential move to Al Ittihad. This club is reportedly close to signing Moussa Diaby and might not prioritize De Bruyne at the moment.
Romano also noted that while securing De Bruyne’s transfer would not be straightforward, the Saudi Pro League team is keen on acquiring Manchester City’s goalkeeper, Ederson.
This indicates that their primary focus might be on strengthening their squad with Ederson rather than De Bruyne.
Under the management of Pep Guardiola, Manchester City has enjoyed another successful season, winning their fourth consecutive Premier League title—a feat never before achieved in English football. This victory marked their sixth league championship in seven years, solidifying their dominance in English football.
Despite their success in the league, Manchester City faced disappointment in the FA Cup final, where they lost 2-1 to Manchester United.
This defeat denied them the chance to make more history by becoming the first team to win back-to-back English domestic doubles.
Despite this setback, Manchester City’s recent achievements highlight their continued excellence and competitiveness in English football.
As the transfer window approaches, the speculation around De Bruyne’s future is likely to continue until a definitive decision is made.
For now, fans and analysts alike will keep a close eye on the developments regarding his potential move to Saudi Arabia and the implications it could have for both Manchester City and Al Ittihad.
