De Bruyne blindly confident asking for price

According to the latest report by Italian DAZN reporter Orazio Accomando, Naples is determined to get Manchester City star De Bruyne, but now Naples is facing a big problem, that is, their offer does not meet De Bruyne's expectations.

It is reported that the gap between the offer in Naples and the asking price of de Bruyne is about 3 million euros. De Bruyne demanded an annual salary of 10 million euros, while Naples could only provide an annual salary of 6 million euros plus a bonus. Because the price cannot be negotiated, the deal cannot move forward and is temporarily in a deadlock.

We know that De Bruyne has spent 10 years proving that he is the best midfielder in the world today. So, is he really expensive to ask the Serie A giants Napoli for an annual salary of 10 million euros?

data shows that so far this season, De Bruyne has played 37 times for Manchester City in various competitions, including 25 starts, scoring 6 goals and sending 8 assists. Although De Bruyne has declined compared to his peak period, his role in Manchester City is still very important. De Bruyne is still the team's midfield commander, and his passing, vision and creativity are still an important guarantee for Manchester City to defeat the opponent.

However, from the perspective of objective factors, from the comprehensive consideration of player ability and market conditions, the quotation of De Bruyne is obviously still a bit expensive. Although his personal ability is unquestionable and his game has not declined very significantly, he is already 33 years old after all, and his injuries have been repeated over and over again. His annual salary of 10 million euros must be considered for any European giant, because the risk is very high. If De Bruyne's condition declines greatly during the contract period, it will cause a very heavy burden on the team.

The most important point is that Naples also needs to consider the balance of the club's salary structure. If the salary balance in the team is broken because of De Bruyne, a series of problems may be triggered in the future. Therefore, for the overall consideration of the club, Naples should not easily agree to De Bruyne's sky-high price. No wonder Manchester City is unwilling to renew his contract with De Bruyne, which turns out that his salary requirements are so high. No normal European wealthy family should agree to his "leopardy" salary quotation. Although

De Bruyne is the world's best midfielder star with a prominent reputation, he should also have a clear understanding of his current situation. The so-called "a hero does not mention his courage" is 33 years old after all, and he has long bid farewell to his peak period. If he still blindly and confidently asks for a price everywhere, it would be difficult for him to find a new owner in European football.
