German side VfL Wolfsburg has sent a transfer plea to Kevin De Bruyne following the Belgian's decision to quit Manchester City. The 33-year-old announced on Friday, April 4, that he will leave the Etihad in the summer with his contract expiring.
VfL Wolfsburg made a transfer plea to the superstar to rejoin the club where he made a name for himself and earned his move to the Etihad. De Bruyne was on the books of the Bundesliga side for only a season and a half before making a reported £55 million switch to Manchester City. VfL Wolfsburg posted on their X handle:
"Dear Kevin, do you remember? You and I ten years ago? How about the two of us again?"
