Kevin the Bruyne hasn't decided anything about his future yet.
In an interview with Sky Sports in the UK on the 17th (Korea time), The Bruyne dismissed rumors surrounding his future. He opened his mouth "I haven't decided yet"I think I should talk to people because they seem to know more than I do," he joked.
He went on to "In fact, I haven't spoken to anyone now. It was not yet the right time, nor was it the right moment. I am fine. I'm happy. I'm doing my job. In time, everything will come, and everything will be fine"If the right moment comes, he will decide his future."
When asked straightforwardly whether he is entering a downward trend as he approaches the age of 34, "Not yet. Of course, sometimes it takes more time to recover. I felt really good when I came back from a big injury last year. Still, I think I can make a difference. If I can do that, I will continue to play soccer. If it becomes more and more difficult to look like that, you have to make a decision. But I still like playing soccer. It's really important to me to enjoy soccer. I'm not even in a situation to consider retiring yet."
It is understood that the options for The Bruyne to decide have been narrowed down to three. According to The Athletic in England, The Bruyne may choose to renew his one-year contract with Manchester City. Manchester City is also willing to respond if The Bruyne decides to stay.
However, if he decides to leave Manchester City, his destination will be narrowed down to two. The Bruyne didn't seem to have any intention of staying in Europe if he left Manchester City. It's bound for Saudi Arabia and the U.S., which continue to tempt The Bruyne.
Saudi Arabia began recruiting superstars in the winter of 2022, when The Bruyne's name was mentioned. It looked like he would not move to Saudi Arabia because he was one of the world's top superstars, but last summer, The Bruyne revealed himself that he was being swayed by the temptation of oil money. Saudi Arabia's annual salary of 150 million euros (about 226.4 billion won) is estimated to have been prepared for The Bruyne.
He said "Playing in Saudi for two years would make a lot of money. I've been playing football for 15 years now and I still wouldn't have made that much money. My wife says it's okay to move abroad. It is also a conversation that my family has more and more. I'm still thinking about what's going to happen because I still have a year left on my contract", he admitted.
There have been reports that The Bruyne has refused to go to Saudi Arabia, but The Bruyne has said again this time that he has not made any decisions.
If you don't want to go to Saudi Arabia, you can go to the United States. The U.S. Professional Football League (MLS) has had a lot of superstars moving around recently. In particular, there was recent news that Inter Miami wanted The Bruyne. David Beckham is the owner of the team, and Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez are the team.
The future of EPL's top superstar, The Bruyne, is expected to be decided soon.
