The Future of Kevin De Bruyne: MLS, Saudi Arabia or European Clubs?

The future of Kevin De Bruyne is undecided. MLS, Saudi Arabia, and European clubs are in the running.

Kevin De Bruyne's future in football is up in the air. With Manchester City not renewing his contract, interest from MLS, the Saudi Pro League, and other European clubs has emerged. MLS's discovery rights system complicates matters, and salary budget issues could pose challenges for teams. Chicago Fire is among the MLS teams interested. If not MLS, options in Europe are limited, and a pay cut might be necessary. De Bruyne must weigh his choices carefully.
