Chelsea Considering Kevin De Bruyne Move, But U.S. Transfer Seems More Likely
Chelsea are reportedly in serious discussions about a sensational move to bring Kevin De Bruyne back to Stamford Bridge. According to journalist Simon Phillips, the London club is exploring the possibility of signing the Manchester City midfielder as part of their plans to strengthen the squad.
De Bruyne, who played for Chelsea earlier in his career before moving on to become one of the Premier League’s best players at Manchester City, is seen as a major target. Chelsea are said to believe that his experience and quality could add much-needed leadership and creativity to their midfield.
However, despite Chelsea’s interest, one source close to the player has indicated that a move to the United States is more likely. De Bruyne, now 33, is believed to be open to finishing his career abroad, with Major League Soccer (MLS) clubs already showing strong interest in signing him.
While talks at Chelsea are still ongoing, the competition from American clubs, along with the appeal of a new challenge and lifestyle in the U.S., could prove decisive. For now, De Bruyne’s future remains uncertain, but signs increasingly point toward an American adventure rather than a Premier League return.
