Napoli have confirmed the signing of Kevin De Bruyne on a free transfer following his exit from Manchester City at the end of his contract.
City announced in April that De Bruyne would be leaving after they decided not to offer the 33-year-old a new deal, with the Belgium international describing it as a “business decision” after 10 trophy-laden years at the club.
De Bruyne had been linked with a move to MLS teams Inter Miami and Chicago Fire, but has opted for the Serie A champions after being determined to keep playing at the highest level.
The midfielder came off the bench during the 2-0 win against Fulham on the last day of the season to make his final appearance for City.
De Bruyne scored four goals and added seven assists across his 28 appearances in the Premier League last season.
