Rotti: De Bruyne s wife went to Naples to see a house in Naples and provided a two-year contract + signing fee

May 9th Italian media "Rome Sports" reported that as Kevin De Bruyne confirmed his farewell to Manchester City this summer, Naples sports director Manna quietly launched a recruitment plan suddenly exposed. The Belgian midfielder superstar's wife Michelle Lacroix recently flew to Naples to inspect real estate, laying a key foreshadowing for a possible transfer.

The wife went to Naples to see the house

De Bruyne and his wife are no strangers to Naples. In 2017, they held a grand wedding in San Agnello, Sorrento Peninsula, with lemons and flowers. At that time, De Bruyne's Belgian national teammate Mertens played for Naples.

Now, 34-year-old De Bruyne has locked his last stop in a club that "maintains competitiveness in the Champions League" after finishing his ten-year career.

Two-year contract + considerable signing fee

It is revealed that Naples plans to provide a two-year contract. Although the basic annual salary is far lower than its last year at Manchester City, it includes considerable signing fee. Sports Director Manna has personally visited Manchester to negotiate and emphasized the dual attractiveness of the competitive level: on the one hand, the team temporarily ranked first in Serie A and returned to the Champions League after a year, and on the other hand, De Bruyne's old friend Lukaku served as a lobbyist.

Michel's house viewing action confirms that the transfer negotiations have entered the substantive stage. The De Bruyne team is comprehensively evaluating details such as quality of life and privacy protection, which is in sharp contrast to the pure money quotes of Saudi and MLS teams. People familiar with the matter revealed: "If you choose to stay in Europe, your salary must be greatly reduced, but Naples can provide a top competitive platform and a comfortable living environment. "

Naples signings B Program

While waiting for De Bruyne to give his final answer, Naples also inspected other attackers: Liverpool marginalist Darwin Nunes, Lille free agent Jonathan David, Porto star Omoro Dion and Paris Saint-Germain's South Korean winger Lee Gangren.
