Manchester City play Maker Kevin De Bruyne has agreed personal terms with Saudi Arabian Club and he is set to leave this week
Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has said something about Kevin De Bruyne’s rumored deal with Saudi Pro League team Al Ittihad. The 33-year-old’s deal ends next summer.
Since moving from Etihad to City in the summer of 2015, De Bruyne has been an important first-team player at the Etihad. Since then, he has played in 382 games across all categories and scored 102 goals and set up 170 others.
But since his contract ends next summer, there have been rumors that people, especially in Saudi Arabia, want to hire him. In a tweet, Romano said, however, that Saudi sources are “playing down claims” of De Bruyne’s move to Al-Ittihad, who are reportedly close to signing Moussa Diaby.
According to Romano, the Saudi Pro League team also wants to sign goalie Ederson, but the deal is not likely to be easy.

After another great season, Pep Guardiola’s team won a record-setting fourth straight Premier League title. They won their sixth league title in seven years. Both of those were firsts in the history of English football.
But they missed out on another piece of history when they lost 2-1 to Manchester United in the FA Cup final. They would have become the first team to win back-to-back English domestic doubles.
