Kevin De Bruyne, a 35-year-old Belgian midfielder, may no longer be a Napoli player after a season in Serie A, but his destination will not be Inter Miami. The Florida club is not in negotiations with the player, while Chicago Fire and San Diego FC are monitoring his situation.

The Belgian has a contract with the Italian club until June 30, 2027. His potential departure will depend on one of the interested clubs reaching an economic agreement with Napoli and presenting a project that convinces the player.

Inter Miami rules out signing Kevin De Bruyne

The name of Kevin De Bruyne had been linked to Inter Miami due to his intention to continue his career in the United States. However, Leo Messi's team has not engaged in discussions with his representatives nor does it plan to do so during this transfer window.

This information dismisses an operation that placed the midfielder in Florida after leaving Europe. De Bruyne had previously considered competing in MLS before joining Napoli but ultimately accepted the proposal from the Italian champions in the summer of 2025.

The Belgian joined as a free agent after ending his contract with Manchester City, where he spent 10 seasons. In Italy, he signed for two years, so Napoli can still request a transfer to authorize his departure.

The option of the United States remains despite Inter Miami's refusal. Chicago Fire and San Diego FC have shown interest in understanding the conditions of an operation that has not yet reached a definitive stage. De Bruyne's departure had been previously discussed in January when the club was contemplating accepting offers for him.

Kevin De Bruyne considering leaving Napoli

Kevin De Bruyne's first season at Napoli was marked by his physical problems. The midfielder played 18 Serie A matches, starting in 13 of them, and accumulated around 1,166 minutes in the league.

During these appearances, he scored five goals and provided two assists. The numbers fell short of the impact he had had in his final seasons in England, although a muscle injury also limited his continuity in the team.

Napoli is willing to consider a separation after just one year. The club could free up one of the highest salaries on its roster and recuperate an amount through a transfer, as they brought the player in as a free agent.

De Bruyne also needs to decide whether he wishes to fulfill his contract in Serie A or reduce the competitive demands in MLS. The proximity of the final stretch of his career and his recent injury history may influence his choice.

Chicago Fire and San Diego FC enter the scene

Chicago Fire previously attempted to sign the Belgian international when he left Manchester City. The club made an offer at that time, but the player chose to stay in Europe and compete with Napoli.

San Diego FC now emerges as another possibility within the American league. Neither of the two teams has reached an agreement with the player nor presented a final offer to the Italian club.

The negotiation will also have to comply with the MLS economic regulations. De Bruyne's salary would require either a designated player slot or structuring the contract through the available mechanisms in the league.

The next step lies with Kevin De Bruyne, who must decide whether he will agree to leave Napoli after just one season. With Inter Miami out of the picture, Chicago Fire and San Diego FC await his decision before initiating formal negotiations with the Serie A club.
