Aston Villa are reportedly considering a move for Kevin De Bruyne, following the midfielder's recent announcement regarding his intention to leave Manchester City at the end of the current season. According to Sky Sports News, Villa officials have begun internal discussions about a potential transfer for the 33-year-old Belgian international.

Earlier this month, De Bruyne revealed his decision to depart the Etihad Stadium upon the conclusion of his contract. This announcement has sparked considerable interest from various clubs within the Premier League, as De Bruyne aims to ensure stability for his family while managing the demands of a professional football career.

In addition to interest from Premier League sides, four Major League Soccer teams—Inter Miami, Chicago Fire, NYCFC, and D.C. United—have reached out to explore De Bruyne’s professional aspirations and financial expectations. Serie A club Como is also reportedly investigating the possibility of securing his services, highlighting the widespread interest in the experienced midfielder from across the Atlantic.

Sky Sports News has sought a statement from Aston Villa regarding their potential pursuit of De Bruyne. His impending exit from Manchester City marks the end of an extraordinary decade at the club, during which he has amassed an impressive collection of 16 trophies, including six Premier League titles and a coveted Champions League trophy. De Bruyne has also played a pivotal role in the club's success, contributing to five League Cups and two FA Cups, alongside a remarkable tally of 107 goals in 417 appearances.

De Bruyne made his move to Manchester City in 2015, joining from Wolfsburg for a then-club record fee of £54.5 million under manager Manuel Pellegrini.
