This is one of the major attractions of the next summer transfer window. According to Sky Italia, Kevin de Bruyne, on the departure of Manchester City, is now “completely open” at the idea of joining Naples. Information that comes as the Azzurri has just won the title of Serie A, carried by a decisive goal from Romelu Lukaku, Grand Friend of Mancunian.
This victory could weigh heavily in the choice of De Bruyne, whose discussions with the Italian club would be well advanced. There are only a few economic details to be paid: the player would have requested a salary slightly higher than the initial offer made by President Aurelio de Laurentiis.
Another revealing sign: the player's family has already given their agreement in principle to the transfer and would have visited several dwellings in the Neapolitan region. The ball is now in the Napoli camp and its president to offer a contract that meets the player's expectations.
“We are not alone”
Asked about this before the meeting against Cagliari (2-0) by Dazn, the Napolitan sports director Giovanni Manna remained cautious, while suggesting that contacts exist.
“We appreciate it, but today, we are not talking about the transfer market, it is a reducing for the team that plays for the Scudetto. The player is strong, but we are not alone. We will see ”he said.
This positioning suggests that Naples is not the only club interested in the 33 -year -old playmaker. But the recent coronation of the Azzurri could constitute a decisive asset. De Bruyne, whose Premier League season ends this Sunday, should soon clarify his position. And with a family already ready to suit their bags, the Neapolitan soap opera now seems to be well launched.
