Kevin De Bruyne has reportedly held talks with MLS clubs about a future move as his time at Manchester City could draw to a close.
According to The Athletic, Kevin De Bruyne could end his Manchester City career as he talks with MLS clubs. The identities of those clubs are not clear at this moment, although there are concrete talks of him leaving Pep Guardioila’s side as his contract expires in the summer.
Kevin De Bruyne has struggled with fitness issues this season and last. The Belgian has barely featured this time out as Pep Guardiola continues to manage his fitness with caution. The Manchester City icon’s current deal expires next summer, and the media is rife with suggestions of an exit from the club.
De Bruyne has had a wonderful career at Manchester City, winning numerous Premier League titles and the Champions League. While he retains the talent to continue at the highest levels, the lure of continuing his career elsewhere continues to play in his mind.
Manchester City are already preparing to part ways, as they are making plans to find a successor for the Belgian. The 33-year-old will be a big miss for the club when he does depart, although his next destination remains unknown, as he has massive interest from Saudi Arabia.
De Bruyne is already warming up to the idea of leaving the club as he plans his next phase. MLS clubs are showing interest, and the fact that the Belgian recently said money does not make a move attractive will play a big part in where the Manchester City icon moves next.

San Diego FC had links to De Bruyne not so long ago, as the ambitious American club are eager to bring in players that send out a statement of intent. They are also keen on Mohamed Salah and may have the funds to broker both transfers.
Other clubs are in the mix, as De Bruyne might strongly consider a move to the US as he holds talks with several parties. Looking back at his Manchester City career, there will be fond memories, as fans will have to wait to find out where the Belgian moves next.
