TRANSFER : de bruyne lawyers set to arrive napoli to finalize deal

Kevin De Bruyne is on the verge of completing a move from Manchester City to Serie A champions Napoli. With his contract at City expiring on June 30, De Bruyne has opted for a European destination over offers from MLS and the Saudi Pro League.

Reports suggest that De Bruyne is considering a two-year contract with an optional third year, offering an annual salary of £4.6 million plus performance bonuses, and an £8 million signing bonus .

The move is further supported by personal ties; De Bruyne and his wife, Michele Lacroix, were married in Naples in 2017, and she recently visited the city, indicating their readiness to relocate .

While the deal isn’t finalized, Napoli’s confidence is growing, and De Bruyne’s transition to Italy appears imminent.
