Could Kevin De Bruyne join Cristiano Ronaldo?! Al-Nassr want to meet Man City superstar to sell Saudi project ahead of potential transfer

Al-Nassr have put the wheels in motion for a potential bid to sign Kevin De Bruyne from Manchester City, it has been claimed.

The Saudi Arabian side have contacted the Belgium international’s agent with the aim of arranging a meeting, according to Rudy Galetti. Al-Nassr’s plan is to explain their long-term strategy to convince the attacking midfielder to join.

De Bruyne, 32, is currently contracted to City until 2025. He remains a key part of Pep Guardiola’s team but has featured just once in the Premier League this season, having been ruled out with a muscle injury he sustained in the early stages of their first game against Burnley. As a result of his fitness troubles, City are reported to have put a stop to talks over a new contract until he recovers.

De Bruyne would be one of many big names to make the move to the Middle East if Al-Nassr are able to convince him. He would reunite with ex-City team-mate Aymeric Laporte as well as the likes of former Premier League rivals Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane and Alex Telles.

De Bruyne will continue his recovery and prepare to return to the City team before he will consider making the switch to the Saudi Pro League.
