A page turns. On April 4, Kevin de Bruyne formalized his departure from Manchester City. “Dear Manchester, seeing this, you probably understand where it leads. So, I'm going to go to the point and announce that it will be my last months as a Manchester City player. Nothing is easy to write, but as footballers, we all know that this day will come. This day has happened, and you deserve to hear it from my mouth first. Football led me to all of you, and to this city. Continue my dream, without knowing that this period was going to change my life. This city. This club. These people … gave me everything. I had no choice but to restore everything! And guess what, we have won everything. ”
He added: “Whether we like it or not, it's time to say goodbye. Suri, Rome, Mason, Michèle and I are more than grateful for what this place has represented for our family. “Manchester” will remain forever on the passport of our children, and above all, in our hearts. It will always be our house. We will never thank the city, the club, the staff, the teammates, the friends and the family enough for these ten years of happiness. Each story has an end, but it has undoubtedly been the most beautiful. Take advantage of these last moments together! Full of love. “ A moving message from the Belgian, who then sent a few spikes to the Skyblues during his following media outings.
KBD chose Naples
“I was a little shocked. I have not received any offer from them throughout the year and the club made this decision. Obviously, I was a little surprised, but I have to accept it. Honestly, I always think that I can play at this level as I do, but I understand that clubs must make decisions. I don't feel embarrassed. I told them (Begiristain and Soriano) that I still had a lot to give. I know that I am no longer 25 years old, but I feel that I can still do my job. ” This was also the opinion of certain stables ready to welcome him like Neom in Saudi Arabia. In Major League Soccer, Chicago Fire, Inter Miami, New York City, DC United and San Diego had also looked into his case.
In Europe, Liverpool was cited as a pretender. But it was especially Naples who was most convincing in the eyes of KBD. The persuasion of the Partenopei paid since Napoli has just formalized the signature of De Bruyne, who was free since the end of his lease in City. “Kevin is proud to be one of ours!”has just published Napoli on its social networks. A new adventure begins for the champions of Italy and Kevin de Bruyne, who will discover the Serie A after having evolved in Belgium, England and Germany.
