Kevin de Bruyne received offers from four games from the major football league while he is preparing to leave Manchester City this summer, he was revealed.
It was confirmed earlier this month that City had chosen not to offer an expensive extension to the 33-year-old man, who would rather move from the Etihad stadium when his current contract expires at the end of the season.
De Bruyne has already excluded retirement and publicly admitted that he was ready to be approached by any club with an interesting project. According to AthleticsThe MLS parties have lost a short time to do this exactly.
Inter Miami, Chicago Fire, the New York City FC and DC United would have all expressed their interest in Bruyne and would have “started exploratory talks” on a successful summer signature.
From the quartet, Miami is supposed to have the advantage because they have the discovery rights of De Bruyne, which means that they have priority when it comes to negotiating a contract with the Belgian international.
However, Miami has no sluggles of free designated players, which means that they can only offer a considerably reduced contract below the wages offered by other clubs in the division.
It had previously been pointed out that the most likely landing place of De Bruyne in MLS would be the San Diego FC, but the sports director Tyler Heaps openly admitted that he did not know where rumors come from.
City, meanwhile, is looking for the successor to De Bruyne. The Florian Wirtz of Bayer Leverkusen would be a key target, while Morgan Gibbs-White of Nottingham Forest was also mentioned as a possible option.
