De Bruyne Set for Napoli Move After City Exit

Kevin De Bruyne is set to leave Manchester City when his contract expires at the end of June, ending a decade-long tenure marked by significant achievements. Napoli have emerged as the leading contender for his signature, with direct negotiations involving their sporting director and manager Antonio Conte. De Bruyne has shown a preference for Napoli, with his wife Michele Lacroix searching for houses in Naples and his personal connections to the region strengthening the likelihood of the move. Napoli have offered him a two-year contract with an option for a third, and his friendship with current Napoli player Romelu Lukaku may further influence his decision. While clubs from MLS, Saudi Arabia, and Real Madrid have expressed interest, Napoli currently appear to be the most likely destination. The transfer would open a new chapter for De Bruyne as he aims to continue competing at the highest level in Serie A.
