De Bruyne leaves PSV move open amid reported transfer talks
The Belgian midfielder's Napoli contract expires in June 2027, with the Italian club holding an option for another season.
Kevin De Bruyne has declined to dismiss a possible January transfer to PSV Eindhoven after reports that the Dutch club contacted his representatives about a move from Napoli. No agreement has been reached.
Speaking to VTM Nieuws after scoring in Belgium's 2-1 Nations League win over Turkey, the 35-year-old midfielder said he was satisfied with his performances and physical condition. He declined to discuss his future in detail and gave no firm indication of whether he shared PSV's interest.
Dutch publication Voetbal International reported that PSV had opened preliminary discussions and was examining the financial requirements of a deal. It described the interest as being at an early stage. Gazzetta dello Sport separately reported that PSV had contacted Napoli about the club's intentions regarding his contract.
Napoli have not confirmed whether they would allow De Bruyne to depart during the season. His agreement runs until June 2027, and the club can extend it for a further season.
De Bruyne arrived at Napoli in the summer of 2025 on a free transfer after a decade with Manchester City. Despite reported disagreements with manager Massimiliano Allegri over his role, he has appeared in all 15 competitive games this season, scoring four goals and providing two assists.
