Napoli are trying to sign Kevin De Bruyne on a free transfer at the end of the season, according to Sky in Italy.
The deal would be a very complicated one but the Serie A club have started contact and are trying to beat off competition from other big clubs.
Antonio Conte’s side are already planning for next season while trying to wrap up the Serie A title race in Italy.
Napoli hope De Bruyne’s friendship with national team-mate Romelu Lukaku’s and his desire to stay in Europe could have an impact.

Aston Villa have also held internal discussions about a potential move for De Bruyne, Sky Sports News understands.
De Bruyne’s reluctance to uproot his family and prioritising his football and home life when making a decision on his next destination has alerted several Premier League clubs.
The 33-year-old will go down as one of the Premier League’s greatest players after winning six Premier League titles, two FA Cups, five Carabao Cups and the Champions League in an unprecedented period of success for City.
De Bruyne was also part of Pep Guardiola’s treble-winning team in 2022/23.
Guardiola described it as a sad day to see De Bruyne’s exit confirmed and said he “is one of the greatest” players the Premier League has ever seen.

Payton Pritchard steps up for Celtics in Game 3 win vs. Knicks, and it goes far beyond his 3-point shooting
Imagn Images NEW YORK -- Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla said Saturday that the days leading up to Game 3 of their first-round series against the New York Knicks were not difficult whatsoever. Yes, the Celtics were down 2-0 after blowing two 20-point leads at home, but "this is the fun part," Mazzulla said. "You don't get into the journey for it to be easy. It's been dark, but in a good way."In this situation, "you just gotta tap into your darkness, and that's it," Mazzulla said.Of course Mazzulla, who has shown the Celtics clips of hyenas and killer whales hunting their prey, would say that. To hear guard Payton Pritchard, though, Boston kept it simple after Game 2. Light, even."We watched areas where we could clean up a little bit, but it was really just being more confident and […]

16 jogos e 16 derrotas: Rogério Ceni mantém escrita e segue sem vencer o Flamengo
A escrita está mantida em mais um encontro de Rogério Ceni com o Flamengo em sua carreira de treinador. Derrotado por 1 a 0 na noite deste sábado, no Maracanã, em confronto da 8ª rodada do Brasileirão, o comandante do Bahia amargou a 16ª derrota em 16 jogos em que enfrentou o rubro-negro. Desde que se tornou técnico, Ceni tem passagens por São Paulo, Fortaleza, Cruzeiro e Bahia, além do próprio Flamengo. E em todas as vezes que teve que enfrentar o rubro-negro, seja dentro ou fora de casa, o ex-goleiro não conseguiu sequer um empate. Foram seis gols marcados e 30 sofridos em 15 jogos. À frente do Bahia, esta foi a quinta derrota sofrida. Em 2024, Ceni e o tricolor perderam quatro vezes para o rubro-negro. Além das duas partidas pelo Campeonato Brasileiro, houve derrotas nos dois confrontos […]
