I think it was tough for De Bruyne to leave Manchester City because he's a great player. If his next club is Napoli, it would be an excellent continuation of his career.
The 33-year-old De Bruyne has been with Manchester City since 2015. During his time there, he has won the Premier League six times, the EFL Cup five times, the FA Community Shield three times, the FA Cup twice, and once each in the UEFA Champions League and the FIFA Club World Cup.
Overall, De Bruyne has played 421 matches for the Citizens across all competitions, scoring 108 goals and providing 177 assists. The Belgian is set to leave Manchester City as a free agent after the current season.
