KEVIN DE BRUYNE is reportedly being sounded out for a move to Saudi Arabia.
The Manchester City star could be the next player to make a move away from Europe and to the Middle East.
De Bruyne, 32, is currently sidelined for the Premier League champions after picking up a hamstring injury in the season opener against Burnley.
It is not yet known when he will return to Pep Guardiola's side.
However, Saudi Arabian clubs are not being deterred by his injury.
A source has told Football Insider that the midfielder could be in line for a “jaw-dropping” contract offer.

Talks over a new contract have been halted due while he recovers from his injury.
The report does suggest that De Bruyne and City are in no rush to sort out a new deal at the moment.

SunSport understands, though, that De Bruyne will reject any big-money offers from Saudi Arabia because he wants to finish his career at the Etihad.
