Kevin De Bruyne, the renowned attacking midfielder for Man City and the Belgian national team, has previously declared his decision to leave the squad for a year. According to CaughtOffside, he is weighing his options for continuing his career in Saudi Arabia or the American MLS.  In essence, he is having to decide between a massive, extremely significant amount of money and his family’s comfort and quality of life.

The 33-year-old De Bruyne’s agents have already begun initial talks with Saudi Arabian club Neom SC, which has offered the midfield player an annual salary of €24 million, according to CaughtOffside.  The possibility of Kevin and his family relocating to the United States is still open, though, since the great David Beckham has invited Kevin to join his team by playing for Inter Miami.  The American team is prepared to give De Bruyne a competitive contract through 2027, with the option of a one-year extension.  Inter has already put in a lot of preparatory effort to close this transaction and is willing to spend a sizable sum of money to acquire De Bruyne’s services.

Insiders at CaughtOffside claim that De Bruyne and his family obviously prefer the Miami lifestyle and the opportunity to play with Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, and Sergio Busquets.  However, a growing number of elite players have been relocating to Saudi Arabia in recent years. This trend was started by Cristiano Ronaldo, who moved to Al Nassr. Other elite players over 30 (Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kanté, and Riyad Mahrez) followed, as well as young prospects like John Duran, a 21-year-old Colombian who just moved from Aston Villa and the Premier League to Saudi Arabia during the most recent winter transfer window.
