According to the famous reporter Di Marzio on October 27, De Bruyne is heading to Belgium to prepare for surgery and is expected to be out for 3 to 4 months.

The reporter revealed that Kevin De Bruyne suffered a muscle injury during the game against Inter Milan, and the Naples midfielder has undergone medical examination. The test results are finally out. The Belgian midfielder was injured when taking the winning penalty kick. He was diagnosed with a severe biceps femoris injury in his right thigh and will be sidelined for 3-4 months. De Bruyne is currently traveling to Belgium to prepare for surgery.

De Bruyne has been a key player for Naples so far this season. The midfielder scored 4 goals in 8 Serie A games and provided 2 assists in 3 Champions League games.

Antonio Conte therefore had to face the dilemma of missing the core midfielder. The team was already missing Stanislav Lobotka. The injury was indeed serious, as was the initial indication - De Bruyne was immediately taken off the field because he could no longer apply force to his leg.

The Napoli Club announced as follows: "After being injured in the game against Inter Milan, Kevin De Bruyne underwent an instrument test at Pineta Grande Hospital, and the results showed that his biceps femoris in his right thigh was severely injured. The Azzurri player has begun the rehabilitation process. "
