Report De Bruyne could already leave Napoli in January

According to Il Mattino, Napoli are willing to evaluate any potential offers from the Saudi Pro League for Kevin De Bruyne this month, with the former Manchester City star also open to exploring his options.

Napoli and De Bruyne could already part ways in the January transfer window, according to Il Mattino (via Sportmediaset).

Napoli will consider offers for De Bruyne

De Bruyne underwent surgery in October and is not expected to return to action before March 2026.

According to the report, several Saudi Pro League clubs remain interested in the Belgian star, and Napoli are open to listening to offers this month.

Il Mattino claims that even De Bruyne himself would consider leaving Napoli as a move to the Saudi League could allow him to prioritise his recovery in preparation for the 2026 World Cup.

De Bruyne is expected to return to Naples next week to continue his recovery.

The former Manchester City star moved to the Stadio Maradona on a free transfer last summer. He scored four goals and provided two assists in 11 appearances across all competitions before sustaining a serious thigh injury in October.
