Kevin De Bruyne 'schedules call with former Premier League manager and gives his preference on new club' ahead of Man City exit

Kevin De Bruyne has arranged a call with a former Premier League manager ahead of his impending departure from Manchester City this summer, according to reports.

The Belgian star, 33, confirmed last month that he will be moving on from the Etihad after a trophy-laden decade with the Premier League giants.

De Bruyne, whose City contract is set to expire on June 30, will be available on a free transfer this summer and has thus attracted a wealth of interest from top clubs across Europe and Saudi Arabia.

Although the midfielder will not be shy of suitors, he has reportedly already given his preference to Serie A giants Napoli and has arranged a phone conversation with Antonio Conte to discuss the potential move.
