De Bruyne close to new Man City contract despite PSG approach

Manchester City are “very close” to agreeing a new contract with Kevin De Bruyne despite interest from Paris Saint-Germain, Goal understands.

City opened talks with De Bruyne’s representatives in September in a bid to secure his long-term future ahead of next summer’s World Cup.

PSG came close to signing the Belgian before he joined City in 2015 and the French club are keen to tempt him again as they look to assemble a side capable of winning the Champions League.

They have made it known to the midfielder's camp that they will make a big-money move at the end of the season, if he were to give any indication that he wants to leave the Etihad Stadium.
