Kevin De Bruyne’s advisors recently held meetings with 10 Saudi Arabian clubs in the Middle East in anticipation of the upcoming summer transfer window. When asked about the interest from Saudi clubs in De Bruyne, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola commented that it is ultimately up to the player and expressed his desire for De Bruyne to stay at the club. However, Guardiola also acknowledged that he is unsure of any potential offers from Saudi Arabia.

In addition to De Bruyne, his teammates Ederson and Bernardo Silva are also reportedly targets for top Saudi clubs, which made significant investments totaling £701.3m in transfers last summer. De Bruyne himself admitted to considering the prospect of a move to Saudi Arabia in an interview with RTP, indicating that it has been on his mind. Furthermore, the invitation to join a new WhatsApp community for updates and exclusive content from Mirror Football was included, along with a note about special offers and promotions for community members, as well as information on privacy.
