De Bruyne seemingly does not know anything about any transfer, he said that Chelsea didn't phone him and even if he signs for Chelsea he'll stay until the end of the season. He guarantees that it's not his last game for Genk.

The articles reads that Genk's president Dirk Degraen went to London 2 times this week, and that the contract would be 5 and a half years, De Bruyne expected to stay for 6 months in Belgium

I think it is because our interest in De Bruyne started before AVB arrived. It is crazy what a little bit of logic can do.

Villas Boas is making fun of medias, he wanted De Bruyne at Porto and was impressed when Porto faced Genk in Champions League qualification rounds. I must admit I don't really understand the utility of that kind of comment, especially because De Bruyne is the most interesting player we could have: great mentality, versatile, can play on both wings and behind a striker, has a great passing into space ability and can shoot from distance...

He's similar to Hoilett, except in the mentality

[Tomo 21,751]

I think we are taking this too much into context about this not being 100% AVB signing, its not like he has got hoisted upon him as MUST go into the first team.

Its similar when you sign a young player 16-21, come into the fringes/reserves and if they impress the manager will give them a shot, Mourinho didn't sing Sinclair in 2005 but gave him a go at The Emirates 2 years later because he impressed at Plymouth.

Interesting read, but this got my attention:

And on the left, he had Silvestre Varela, a natural winger – powerful but tricky, two-footed but predominantly coming inside onto his right foot.

That to me seem smore like a Hazard then him....well the tricky part.

But KDB would be a good squad player.

By the way, Luaku was the same as KdB. Was scouted and decided upon before André came.

But both were wanted at Porto by Villas Boas too

Really?

[SeB 1,281]

Porto allegedly wanted to sign Lukaku as Falcao's replacement after he moved to Atletico ; whereas Villas Boas planned to sign Lukaku at Chelsea one summer later. Because he left Porto in bad terms (even if Porto does never takes players on loan, he didn't want to speak again to his former club) and didn't wan't the player to sign elsewhere, that's why he signed him hastily.

And it's what explains why Lukaku wasn't on the Champions League squad, when Villas Boas arrived at Chelsea he didn't have Lukaku in his 2011/2012 plans

Says here that he's taking the Eurostar ( just like Lukuku did ) to come over for the medical , Monday morning.

Saturday excelled De Bruyne including two goals against OH Leuven and Sunday morning he was still on the run course at Genk.

Belga

In the afternoon he took the Eurostar to London, including in the company of a reporter from The Evening News. Monday morning around 9am, the medical tests at Chelsea start.

De Bruyne would draw at Chelsea for 5.5 seasons and Genk 8 million euros yield. He makes the season anyway in Genk, confirmed as CEO Dirk Degraen.

Goes with the new club policy of awarding a steady 5 1/2 year contract for new signings .
