MLS expansion side San Diego FC in talks with Manchester City superstar Kevin De Bruyne: report

Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne has been linked with a shock move to Major League Soccer side San Diego FC.

The Belgian playmaker is reportedly in talks with the MLS expansion franchise about a potential move in the summer of 2024.

De Bruyne, 31, is one of the most decorated players in the Premier League, having won four league titles, six League Cups, and an FA Cup with Manchester City. He has also been named PFA Players' Player of the Year twice.

However, De Bruyne is now entering the twilight of his career and is said to be considering a move to the United States in order to prolong his playing career.

San Diego FC is a new MLS expansion franchise that will begin play in 2024. The club is owned by a group of investors led by Ron Burkle, a billionaire businessman who is also a minority owner of the Pittsburgh Penguins NHL team.

San Diego FC is building a new stadium in the city's Mission Valley neighborhood. The stadium is expected to be completed in time for the start of the 2024 MLS season.

If De Bruyne does sign for San Diego FC, it would be a major coup for the MLS. The Belgian is one of the best midfielders in the world and would be a huge draw for fans in San Diego and across the United States.

However, it is important to note that the reported talks between De Bruyne and San Diego FC are still in the early stages. It is possible that the move could fall through, either due to De Bruyne's own decision or due to the two clubs being unable to agree on a transfer fee.
