Kevin De Bruyne in Talks with San Diego FC for Potential MLS Move

According to reports, Kevin De Bruyne is considering a move to San Diego FC, an MLS expansion team, as his contract with Manchester City draws to a close in June. As they get ready for their debut season in Major League Soccer, San Diego FC is eager to sign a well-known player, and the 33-year-old Belgian playmaker has had preliminary talks with the Southern California team.

Reports state that De Bruyne’s signing would come after the club just acquired Chucky Lozano from PSV, which would be another significant step in expanding its lineup.

Manchester City is “keen” on keeping De Bruyne past his current deal, even in the face of MLS interest. With six Premier League titles under his belt, De Bruyne has been a key component of City’s success, and manager Pep Guardiola appreciates his ability to lead and create plays. But with De Bruyne’s willingness to try new things and San Diego FC’s keen interest, the midfielder might have a strong alternative.

Saudi Pro League vs. MLS: De Bruyne’s Favorite Location

The Saudi Pro League, which has previously stated that it would like to recruit De Bruyne to the Middle East, has also taken notice of him. San Diego FC is prepared to take advantage of this interest, though, as sources indicate that he prefers Major League Soccer. San Diego is hopeful that De Bruyne might be their first big-name addition, bringing star power to the team and MLS overall, as they want to build a competitive team.
