De Bruyne relieved to complete City switch

Following a drawn-out transfer saga, Kevin De Bruyne is looking forward to focusing on his football once more at Manchester City.

Kevin De Bruyne expressed relief that his protracted switch from Wolfsburg to Manchester City has finally gone through.

The Belgium international on Sunday signed a six-year deal at the Etihad Stadium after the two clubs reached an agreement following frenzied speculation over the former Chelsea man's future.

De Bruyne played four matches for Wolfsburg as talk of a return to England intensified, scoring in the 4-1 DFB Pokal win over Stuttgart Kickers, before missing Friday's match against Schalke to complete his move to City.
