Kevin De Bruyne has put Saudi Arabian clubs on alert by revealing he is open to leaving Manchester City this summer.

The 32-year-old’s contract with the Premier League champions expires at the end of next season and with no clear indication on his future in England, De Bruyne is weighing up his options.

Mail Sport revealed back in February that Saudi Pro League officials are ready to intensify their efforts to lure De Bruyne away from the Premier League.

Now, when asked about the potential of a switch to the Middle East, De Bruyne – who already earns £300k-a-week at City – admitted the ‘incredible amounts of money’ on offer make it an attractive destination that would be hard to turn down.

‘I still have one year left on my contract, so I have to think about what could happen,’ he told Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws.

‘My eldest is now eight years old and knows nothing but England. He also asks how long I will play for City. Once the moment comes, we will have to deal with it in a certain way.

‘At my age you have to be open to everything. You’re talking about incredible amounts of money in what may be the end of my career. Sometimes you have to think about that.’

De Bruyne added: ‘If I play there for two years, I will be able to earn an incredible amount of money. Before that I had to play football for 15 years. I may not even reach that amount yet.

‘Then you have to think about what that could mean next. But at the moment I haven’t had to think about that yet.’

The idea of leaving Manchester City has been something that De Bruyne said he has spoken about extensively with his wife Michele Lacroix.

Lacroix is said to be receptive to an ‘exotic adventure’, further strengthening suitors’ belief that De Bruyne, who also has interest from MLS clubs, can be enticed by an offer this summer.
