A number of Europe’s top club are positioning themselves to secure the services of VfL Wolfsburg winger Kevin De Bruyne, according to the player’s agent.
The Belgian international’s representative, Patrick De Koster, told talkSPORT that Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have all made “informal contact” with him in order to register their interest in his client.
De Bruyne has scored 15 goals and tallied 26 assists for Wolfsburg in all competitions this season.
The 23-year-old’s current deal with the Bundesliga club is set to expire in June 2019, but many feel a bid between £35-45 million would see Wolfsburg allow the winger leave the German side.
De Bruyne’s agent confirmed that he is prepared to sit down with Wolfsburg’s sporting director Klaus Allofs next week in order to see what the club wants to do with his client moving forward.
“I have a meeting with Klaus Allofs next week to find out what they want to do,” De Koster told talkSPORT. “I will know if they want to offer Kevin a new deal or allow him to move.
“Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have made informal contact with me, but there have been no official offers.
“The situation has now changed with Wolfsburg qualifying for the Champions League next season, so wherever he plays next season it will be in the Champions League.
“If Wolfsburg decide to sell Kevin, then he will have a choice of clubs who can win their domestic league and challenge for the Champions League as well.
“The choice is his.”
De Bruyne completed his move to Wolfsburg in January 2014 after failing in two attempts to establish himself at Chelsea.
The winger was loaned out to Werder Bremen for the 2012-13 campaign where he scored 10 goals in 34 appearances, earning himself a strong reputation in the Bundesliga.
After things didn’t work out at Stamford Bridge for the second time, De Bruyne signed a five-and-a-half-year contract with Wolfsburg in January 2014.
The 23-year-old is now considered one of the best playmakers in Bundesliga, as well as in Europe.
