It's now official: Kevin De Bruyne is a new Napoli player. The announcement came directly from Aurelio De Laurentiis, who published on X a photo of him shaking hands with the Belgian champion, accompanied by a dry but eloquent message: "Welcome Kevin".
Within a few minutes, Napoli's official account also celebrated the transfer market coup with an image destined to remain in the fans' memories: De Bruyne sitting on a golden throne, surrounded by a regal aura. The writing? “King Kev is here.”
After the medical examinations carried out this morning at the Villa Stuart clinic in Rome, the Belgian playmaker completed all the formalities and put pen to paper on the contract that will tie him to the Neapolitan club for two seasons, with the option for a third year.
De Bruyne's announcement was a big surprise for everyone, but let's see how he adapts to Napoli. I hope his performances live up to expectations, but there are also doubts about his physical condition.
I'm curious to see how De Laurentiis handles the situation. The idea of having a player of that level is interesting, but let's not forget that the championship is very competitive and it takes time and adaptation.
