Kevin de Bruyne's agent Patrick de Koster says he
has held discussions with Manchester City ahead
of the summer transfer window.
De Bruyne has been in great form for Wolfsburg
this season. The Belgium international has netted
10 league goals and tops the assist chart with 17 -
seven more than second placed Zlatko Junuzovic
- and has created a lot more chances than
anyone else in the German top flight.
De Koster insists the 23-year-old is happy at
Wolfsburg, but admits there is a huge amount of
interest in him.
"I have met the people from Manchester City," he
told The Guardian. "I’ve never spoken to anyone
from Manchester United but a lot of other clubs
have been in touch to find out some general
information.
“I think with the season Kevin has had if we didn’t
have these questions then there would be
something wrong. I saw Mino Raiola’s quotes
about taking 20 phone calls a day regarding Paul
Pogba and it’s the same situation for me and
probably for the agent of Memphis Depay at the
moment.
“For the moment, there are no formal
discussions. Of course in the next few weeks I
will be going around the world to talk about the
situation with Kevin but this is just informal
information.
“I will talk to everybody but Kevin is very, very
happy with Wolfsburg and the way they have
treated him since he arrived from Chelsea last
year. There are still five games to play and
hopefully they can make sure of a place in the
Champions League next season so it is a little bit
too early to be making any decisions. He has a
four-year contract at Wolfsburg so we will have
to see what they want to do."
He also added his thoughts on the fee De Bruyne
could command, saying: "I don’t know how
much he would cost. Wolfsburg paid €24 million
to Chelsea so I can see it being a lot more than
that."
