De Bruyne yet to open contract talks with Man City

Kevin De Bruyne is facing a challenging season at Manchester City, with his contract set to expire in six months and no talks yet initiated for an extension.

The 33-year-old midfielder has struggled with injuries, making just eight Premier League starts and contributing only four goal involvements so far in 2024-25. His current form is his least productive since the 2018-19 season. Despite his struggles, De Bruyne is still linked with moves to clubs in the Saudi Pro League and MLS.

After recovering from an abdominal injury, he returned to City's lineup for a 2-0 win over Leicester. Manager Pep Guardiola emphasised De Bruyne's importance when fit, acknowledging his impact on the team and the Premier League.
