De Bruyne Considered Saudi Arabian Move But Remains at Man City

Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne revealed that he actively explored a potential move to Saudi Arabia last summer but ultimately decided to stay at the Etihad Stadium.

In an interview with a Belgian newspaper, De Bruyne admitted that he was tempted by the lucrative offers coming from the Saudi Pro League, which has seen a surge in high-profile signings in recent months. However, he ultimately felt that his commitment to Manchester City and the challenges of the Premier League outweighed the financial incentives offered by Saudi clubs.

"There were definitely some interesting proposals from Saudi Arabia last summer," De Bruyne said. "It was a tempting offer, but in the end, I decided to stay at City. I'm still very motivated to compete at the highest level and I believe I can continue to achieve great things here."

De Bruyne's decision to remain at Manchester City comes as no surprise given his continued success with the club. He has been a key figure in City's dominance of English football in recent years, winning multiple Premier League titles and reaching the Champions League final.

While De Bruyne may have considered a move to Saudi Arabia, his commitment to Manchester City remains strong. His decision to stay at the Etihad Stadium is a testament to his ambition and his belief in the club's ability to continue competing at the highest level.
