<p>The 33-year-old Belgian has confirmed that he will depart the Etihad Stadium once the current season concludes, opening the door to offers from around the globe. While his days of <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-sa/lists/cristiano-ronaldo-al-nassr-blockbuster-contract-offer-man-city-kevin-de-bruyne/blt261071a40f76fd8d" target="_blank">peak performance</a> may be behind him, De Bruyne remains a highly attractive proposition in the market. Top clubs from across the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/kevin-de-bruyne-next-club-potential-free-transfer-destinations-confirms-man-city-exit/blt26e54bc87790fce2#cs78e93f6054899a28" target="_blank">United States, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and other footballing regions</a> are vying to secure the services of one of the finest playmakers of his generation on a free transfer.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Among the suitors, Saudi Arabian powerhouse Al-Nassr has emerged as a strong contender. The club, already home to global icon Cristiano Ronaldo, is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/cristiano-ronaldo-kevin-de-bruyne-link-up-al-nassr-man-city-cr7-advice/bltc905ec503dd9dc76" target="_blank">reportedly keen to add De Bruyne</a> to its roster in a bid to further strengthen its domestic and continental ambitions. Ronaldo himself is playing an active role in pushing the club’s interest in De Bruyne. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Former Chelsea and Arsenal defender William Gallas has added his voice to the growing chorus calling for De Bruyne to make the move to Riyadh.</p><p>“It would be great for Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane," he said in an interview with <a href="https://www.slingo.com/blog/lifestyle/william-gallas-exclusive-interview/" target="_blank"><em>Slingo</em></a><em>.</em> "It would be great for the club (Al Nassr). I know that the club are desperate to win the league, so it would be a very positive thing for them. It would definitely help Ronaldo score 1000 goals because De Bruyne's vision is amazing. I'm sure Ronaldo would love to play alongside him.”</p>

WHAT GALLAS SAID

<p>Meanwhile, Major League Soccer remains another plausible landing spot. With De Bruyne open to a move stateside, links to David Beckham’s Inter Miami have naturally surfaced. A potential midfield partnership with Lionel Messi, not to mention Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, has fans in Florida buzzing.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>As summer nears, all eyes are on De Bruyne. It remains to be seen if the Belgian opts for the glamour and big-money offers of Saudi Arabia and joins forces with Ronaldo. In the short term, he will be back in action against Everton on Saturday in the Premier League. </p>
