Wolfsburg attacking midfielder Kevin De Bruyne is set to reject both Manchester United and Manchester City if the words of his agent Patrick De Koster are to be believed.
De Bruyne has been at the heart of everything that Wolfsburg have achieved this season as his nine goals and record 18 assists so far this season have propelled Wolfsburg into second place, 10 points behind league leaders Bayern Munich. His development has raised a lot of eyebrows with both the Manchester clubs being interested as they are on the lookout for a young attacking midfielder.
While United have been in good form, one potential position that they could strengthen is that of an attacking midfielder quite simply because they don’t have a natural player other than Juan Mata in that position. Louis van Gaal has tried the likes of Wayne Rooney, Ander Herrera and Angel Di Maria in that position, but neither have really impressed in the diamond formation.
On the other hand, there are talks that their rivals Manchester City could consider a squad overhaul in the summer as they bid to add youthful freshness into the squad. City’s average squad age against Manchester United was more than 28, and considering how fast paced the Premier league is, they could be in dire need of players who are younger.
De Bruyne’s market value is somewhere around A?22m, but his agent revealed that he could cost much more than that after stating that the Italian Serie could be De Bruyne’s next destination, a There are several interesting teams in Italy, such as Juventus who are a fantastic club.a
a Currently the only club we have talked to regarding his future is the German side. His value is higher than A?22m, but you cana t take anything for granted in football,a he told Europa Calcio.
