Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne will reportedly quit the club later in his career in order to play in the MLS.

Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne will reportedly quit the club later in his career in order to play in the MLS.

The Belgian, who joined the Citizens from Wolfsburg in August 2015, recently signed a new deal with Pep Guardiola's team that will keep him at the Etihad until 2023.

De Bruyne's agent, Patrick De Koster, has revealed, however, that the 26-year-old is a fan of the American lifestyle and plans to spend his final years as a player in the country.

"I think Kevin will end his career in the USA rather than in Belgium," the agent told The Sun. "He has already been to America many times on holiday, and he loves the country and its culture. He said goodbye to his bachelor life in Las Vegas, and we have often spoken about him ending his career in the MLS.

"He hasn't yet had any offers from American clubs, because they know it is not worth bothering as he is at the peak of his career. Clubs in China will probably look longingly at him, but I can't see him going over to play there.

"Did I have any contacts with Real Madrid or Barcelona? Informal contacts are made all the time, and people call me in the name of club X or Y. But Kevin's only desire was to remain at City. He is incredibly happy on all levels, and besides he has just bought a house near Manchester that he is renovating."

De Bruyne, who joined City from Wolfsburg in 2015, has been an important figure in the City team that top the Premier League table.
