Kevin De Bruyne not in Chelsea’s summer transfer plans - The Telegraph
Despite Enzo Maresca’s desire to add more experience to Chelsea’s youthful squad this summer, the club is not expected to pursue a move for Kevin De Bruyne - even with the Manchester City star set to become a free agent, according to The Telegraph.
While Maresca has acknowledged that qualifying for the Champions League will heavily influence Chelsea's summer transfer activity, De Bruyne is reportedly not part of their plans. The Belgian midfielder, who has enjoyed a glittering decade at City, is approaching the end of his contract, but sources suggest Chelsea do not see him as a viable target.
De Bruyne, once part of Chelsea’s ranks, was sold to Wolfsburg in 2014 before joining Manchester City - a move that sparked one of the most decorated careers in Premier League history.
Kevin De Bruyne has played 34 matches this season, scoring 5 goals and providing 8 assists. See detailed stats on Tribuna.com.
