Hmmm, that's true!!!
Kevin De Bruyne is still quite good like still he is much, much better that other midfielders. So if by himself he wants to extend his contract then obviously it will be pleasure for the team. But I saw so many rumors on social media that KDB wants to leave the club. Now we don't know how much the truth is found in these surrounding rumors. But I think he will leave the club because Pep Guardiola want to rebuild a new squad. Let me tell you something more that Pep is in an intense push to sign Pedri as the replacement for KDB. They already prepared a £200 million bid. But anyway let's see what next to come....

The rest is that David Beckham also wants KDB for inter Miami and also in parallel, SPL clubs are also in struggling to sign him.

In order to maintain long-term existence, squad overhaul is a step that must be taken by every team. In Pep Guardiola perspective, De Bruyne ability may have declined significantly, therefore Man City management is no longer trying hard to extend his contract, even though we know the fans still really like him. De Bruyne is one of the highest paid players, Man City failure in the Premier League and Champions League this season may also be the reason why management has difficulty retaining him.

Finding a replacement that is equal to De Bruyne is a very difficult challenge, Pedri might be the right successor, but the price of 200 million seems very high. Regarding De Bruyne future, I tend to think he will move to the MLS although several Saudi Pro League clubs are also very interested in him. The two leagues usually offer high salaries to recruit European star players, it is a good choice before retiring.
