I wish KDB to stay much longer in City. He's right about he can still compete in the high level of football competition. It makes sense to hand him one year contract extension because he's the only guy who often carried his club. I know how good he is, though old enough as a football player.
I obviously support him to stay, and hope agree even to take salary cut to stay in City. Happy to see he still realizes his potential as one of great midfielder.
I hope his club will aware of his intention to stay much longer.
His performance keep dropping since the last season, this season even worse.
It's hard to expect his performance will back in the next season, but the problem is Manchester City currently don't have a deserved player who can replace De Bruyne. Extend his contract for one more year doesn't sound bad.
Manchester CIty can use one year to find better player, whether it's Marmoush or sign a new top attacking midfielder.
Naturally, his performance continues to decline because he is old and often suffers from injuries, which is probably why his performance has dropped.
Not sure if Manchester City will keep him? Because the KDB story explains he will leave, right? Maybe this is the last season or if there is a change of mind from the club by extending the contract 1 season indeed this is not too bad.
It could be that in the summer if it is true that KDB leaves, it will recruit new players again but we still don't know who Pep Guardiola is targeting in the summer.
