Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne is “close to” signing a new deal at the Etihad Stadium, according to Fabrizio Romano.
New Contract Soon For Manchester City Star Kevin De Bruyne
Future Lies With Citizens
Manchester City are close to securing the services of Kevin De Bruyne until 2025, with the midfielder set to sign a new contract according to reports.
The Belgium international’s current contract is set to expire in 2023, but De Bruyne is expected to follow Pep Guardiola in signing a new contract.
Guardiola recently put pen to paper on a new deal with Manchester City, extending his stay until 2023.
According to Romano, De Bruyne is representing himself in negotiations with City and “both parties are confident a deal will be reached soon” after beginning in October.
It is understood the midfielder is currently on a deal worth £300,00-a-week, including bonuses, and expects a small increase.
A new contract would come as great news to Manchester City chiefs with Kevin De Bruyne having reportedly been a target for Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.
Manchester City Time Full of Achievements
It is difficult to downplay how successful a time Kevin De Bruyne has had at the Etihad Stadium.
While he may not have recorded achievements on a European level, the midfielder has established himself as one of the best playmakers in the Premier League – and possibly the world.
Since arriving five years ago in 2015, De Bruyne has won two Premier League titles, one FA Cup and four league cups.
Despite a slower start to the league campaign this year, the Belgian has continued to produce a number of stellar performances.
The 29-year-old has made more passes into the penalty area than any other player (39) and has an average of 1.07 goal-creating actions – joint-top with only James Rodriguez of Everton.
