De Bruyne on his way to PSV: Boualin reports serious interest

Kevin de Bruyne appears to be seriously wanting to move to PSV, reports transfer expert Mounir Boualin, who indicates that Napoli is still asking for several million for the Belgian who is under contract until next summer.

Mounir Boualin says that the Belgian would like to go to Eindhoven and that the rumours are now sounding increasingly serious.

Boualin reported Friday afternoon, referring to various Italian sources, that De Bruyne has set his sights on a transfer to PSV.

Despite several interested clubs, the Belgian international currently prefers a move to the Dutch leader.

He wants to play closer to home, about an hour away, and the playing style of PSV under Bosz appeals to him.

There is no personal agreement yet, but that could happen quickly in the near future.

PSV’s expected bid for Napoli

PSV is expected to officially submit an opening bid to Napoli for De Bruyne in the short term.

Italian sources indicate that Napoli is still asking for a few million euros for the attacking midfielder, who is under contract with Napoli until the upcoming summer.

The transfer process is almost officially on track and we will see how it develops.

Journalist Niels Vleminckx confirms the rumours after inquiries with people who know the player well.

Vleminckx adds that De Bruyne’s wife and children would rather live in Belgium than in Napoli.

For the family it is important to be able to live within 45 minutes of Eindhoven.

According to Vleminckx money is a side issue; three or four clubs are on De Bruyne’s list, PSV is one of them, and there are few nearby clubs where he would feel comfortable and could play dominantly.
