Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne is seriously considering staying in the Premier League rather than moving to MLS or Saudi Arabia when he leaves the Citizens as a free agent.
Chelsea, the club that first signed the Belgian in 2012 but never gave him a proper chance, are showing the strongest interest.
According to El Nacional, other English top clubs – Arsenal, Manchester United, and Newcastle – are also ready to compete for the midfielder. All see De Bruyne as an experienced star capable of instantly bolstering their squads in the race for silverware.
Meanwhile, City boss Pep Guardiola is disappointed by this turn of events. The manager had hoped De Bruyne would end his career in a less competitive league, preserving his legacy among City fans.
