Kevin De Bruyne says he did not try to leave Napoli during the summer transfer window. In comments reported by multiple outlets, he addresses speculation about his future by stating that he remained with the club rather than pushing for a move.
De Bruyne also acknowledges that Napoli’s start to the season has been difficult. He describes it as a “rough start” and references the impact of changing circumstances under Massimiliano Allegri, suggesting that the team’s early results have not matched expectations. While the sources emphasize his denial of any departure attempt, they largely focus on his broader message that early-season performance and adaptation have been challenging.
Across the reports, the tone is consistent: both highlight his insistence that he stayed, alongside an admission that the transition period has been tough. The coverage differs mainly in how much emphasis each outlet places on the transfer-window claim versus the season’s on-field struggles under the new coaching setup.
