Now that Max Allegri has come in, and is if anything even more negative in his general approach, it seemed predictable that De Bruyne would want to try a different experience.

However, this evening Belgian transfer pundit Sacha Tavolieri claims that De Bruyne has decided with his family to stay on at Napoli for another season. After all, it was the draw of the city by the sea that had made him choose Napoli last year when his contract with Manchester City ran down. He had already loved Naples so much that he chose a venue in the area to get married, and often went back on family vacations. In turn, Napoli had made it clear that he was under contract and therefore had “no decisions to make” regarding his future.
