Recently, Manchester City fans may be a little restless, as the contract renewal issue of their ace midfielder De Bruyne has not been resolved. Since Manchester City handed in the renewal contract with a weekly salary of 150,000 pounds, three weeks have passed without any response.

You should know that De Bruyne, who wears the No. 17 soccer shirt, earns a weekly salary of 375,000 pounds, and this new contract directly reduces his salary by 60%. Seeing that the contract renewal negotiations have reached a deadlock, it is said that they have quietly sent AC Milan a "test balloon" of 60 million euros, targeting Dutch midfielder Reijnders.

If De Bruyne really leaves, Manchester City will lose the midfield engine. And if Reijnders can really wear the Manchester City jersey and take over successfully, it will be related to the inheritance and evolution of the team's style. The choices Manchester City faces now are much more complicated than football tactics.
