Rumors are swirling that two of Saudi Arabia’s top clubs, Al Nassr and Al Ittihad, are preparing bids to lure Manchester City’s midfield maestro Kevin De Bruyne to the Saudi Pro League. Both clubs are reportedly ready to offer the Belgian superstar a staggering $500,000 per week, a deal that could mark the twilight of his illustrious career.

For Manchester City, letting go of De Bruyne may not be as surprising as it once would have been. The club is open to parting ways with him as injuries have started to take their toll, and at 33, many feel he may be past his prime. Although still a pivotal player when fit, his frequent absences have made it easier for City to consider life without their midfield talisman.

But the big question remains: where will De Bruyne land? At Al Nassr, he could reunite with Cristiano Ronaldo, a legend of the game and the reigning star of the Saudi Pro League. Ronaldo’s presence has already boosted the club’s global profile, and adding De Bruyne would solidify their status as a football powerhouse.

On the other hand, Al Ittihad offers a different allure. With a young, promising squad led by veteran Karim Benzema, De Bruyne could become the midfield linchpin for a team poised to challenge for the top honors. The combination of youthful energy and Benzema’s leadership creates an attractive option for a player looking to leave a lasting impact.

In the end, the decision comes down to De Bruyne. Does he opt for the global star power of Al Nassr, or does he choose to guide Al Ittihad’s emerging talent? Only time will tell.
