Kevin de Bruyne

[supporter 3,088]

He is now worth 50m, in one year his price has increased significantly.

So much money?

I had read that Wolfsburg had rejected an offer from Manchester United in January this market for 30 million pounds, and Kevin de Bruyne not want to go to Manchester United. But perhaps Wolfsburg want to take advantage of the situation to earn more money.

I think your final price of Kevin de Bruyne can be between 30m or 40m.

Regards.

He doesnt suit Mou system realy. And its one thing to tear it up for wolfsburg and completely other to do it here among better players, more pressure and lot more defensive work.

That said, he is good player, but if we will buy another #10, it should be either Koke or Isco. Althrough Koke isnt perfect #10, he is best mix of Oscar and Kdb. Hardworker with great eye for a pass.

Totally agree with you.

Isco would be totally perfect imo. But I see impossible that Real Madrid will sell. But if there is such a possibility Isco would be perfect.

Koke is meant by Diego Costa to perfection. Maybe not as a No. 10, but definitely putting Fabregas as a No. 10 and Koke as midfielde. That`s would be also a good option.

If the final price of Kevin de Bruyne is 50 millions of pounds, I prefer to fight for signing Isco or Koke.

Regards.

If we buy another midfielder I want it to be an adaptable one. Someone capable of fitting into a variety of shapes... Koke sort fits that but not more than Paul Pogba for me. He's exactly who we should buy.

Yeah Isco would be hard to get, but far from impossible. If they bring Reus/Pogba then Isco is off IMO. Maybe real wont want to sell him but Isco isnt stupid to sit on bench whole career. 30m and he could be sold, Real doesnt care much for bench players IMO. Shiny new toys are everything that Perez wants.

Pogba would be perfect for us, I would mention him but lets be objective here.

Pogba would cost 80m and even if we can afford, Mou might look for cheaper options despite Pogba fits us like hand in glove. Secondly there will be Real in for Pogba and we dont stand chance with them unless Pogba DEMANDS to join us.

Besides once we land Messi in summer I doubt there will be money for Pogba anyway

I'm not so sure. Paul may want to play in England again who knows what motivates a player. Maybe playing for Jose? Some other French teammates? I think Chelsea have as good a shot as any team if I'm honest.

No one thought we'd get Hazard and we did...

But price will be damn high.

IMO the current Munich side are a bit better than the one Kagawa raped but the point stands. KDB and Kagawa both were agile and clever enough to expose Bayern's greatest weaknesses. They have always wanted to control the opponent with their passing and high block. They are like machines with precise commands. Intelligent players who move the ball quickly and spot the spaces they leave behind can easily exploit them and counter attack them to death. Hazard did that in the super cup, KDB did it last week and Kagawa did it in 2012. Especially players like Boateng who are good but not overly intelligent can't react when they get found out.

I agree. The current munich side when healthy is superior, however, the munich side he faced drew against schalke without Draxler and Huntleer. This munich side has a bastian who recently returned as well as alaba. Ribery still injured along with thiago and lahm and javi martinez.

They rejected a 40M offer of Man Utd this winter period. And when a journalist asked the Wolfsburg manager if he would sell him for 50M, he got the answer: "Not even for 70M.".

Rightfully so, Wolfsburg is a great team with great players, but it completely depends on De Bruyne. Loosing him would be a disaster and they would never find a replacement that matches his quality.

POY in the Bundesliga will be an interesting battle between the young rising star (De Bruyne) and the player that has proved everything already (Robben).

Would be worth every penny.

Maybe not on face value, but when you think (barring an awful injury) ten years off a Vieira/Essien type player for me it's worth the hit.

When did United bid for kdb when united fans never even heard of it ..

He said one of the best young players, slight difference =)

Belgium is one of the best national sides of the past decade? Did I miss something these last 10 years?

So he said: "De Bruyne, one of the best young players.". Thanks for the video, it shows that media can change words indeed

I had not seen the conference, so I just copy what the footballnews websites say. And they have changed his words indeed.
