Manchester City wants to reward Kevin De Bruyne’s dedication by granting him a contract extension.
De Bruyne could earn £1 million per week by joining the Saudi Pro League bandwagon. However, the 33-year-old Belgian enjoys life at the Etihad Stadium, and his three young children call Manchester home.
De Bruyne still has 18 months left on his current £375,000-a-week contract. However, City intend to sign him until the summer of 2026, extending his tenure beyond a decade.
The former Chelsea midfielder returned from a five-month injury layoff last week to inspire the champions to a critical 3-2 victory over Newcastle, scoring and assisting.
De Bruyne believes the layoff has increased his energy and focus. He stated, “I may have needed that to get everything back on track. Mentally, it has just become quiet; not having any tension for a few months makes a difference.”
City manager Pep Guardiola was overjoyed to have his star back, lavishing praise on the midfielder following the Magpies’ victory. He stated, “Kevin is a legend.” He is adored by our people, and maybe, in the next months, he will be able to assist us in staying till the end.
He continued, “We need players like Kevin. We need him to do something extraordinary in the last third. That is not tactical competence, but rather individual talent. I believe everyone believes that we played exceptionally well against such a physical team in Newcastle.

“They made wonderful movements, and after taking the lead [via Bernardo Silva], we conceded two goals, but talent overcame it. At halftime, I urged the players, ‘You are terrific, stick together and we will do it.’ It was critical to win because Liverpool are flying and we have to travel to Anfield, so we’d rather be near to them.”
When City paid Wolfsburg £55 million in 2015 for a player who had failed to impress at Chelsea, questions were raised. However, De Bruyne is a contender for the title of best Premier League midfielder of all time, having helped City win five titles, the Champions League, two FA Cups, and five EFL Cups.
