Four MLS teams — Inter Miami, the Chicago Fire, NYCFC and D.C. United — have expressed interest in signing Kevin De Bruyne. According to multiple club sources familiar with the discussions, speaking on the condition of anonymity, the four sides have begun exploratory talks aimed at bringing the Manchester City midfielder to the United States.

"In the Premier League he is one of the greatest midfielders in this country and top of the club," said Pep Guardiola. "Great, if not the greatest."

That is according to a new report from Belgian outlet De Standaard, who claim that Kevin De Bruyne initially expected an extended stay at the Etihad Stadium, but now has a ‘clouded relationship’ with Manchester City following the decision taken over his future.
