Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne receives £1million-a-week offer to leave Manchester City this January to join this Shocking Club

Manchester City’s woes continued unabated as they stumbled to a 1-1 draw against Everton on Boxing Day, piling pressure on manager Pep Guardiola. The team’s lackluster performance was a stark reminder of the daunting task ahead for Guardiola, with many questioning whether he has the energy to spearhead the rebuilding process.
Kevin De Bruyne’s abrupt exit after the final whistle only added to the sense of unease. The Belgian midfielder, who was introduced in the 75th minute, made little impact and promptly headed for the tunnel, sparking speculation about his frustration. TalkSPORT presenter Adrian Durham noted that De Bruyne was “probably the first down the tunnel,” while former City defender Danny Mills observed that his departure was “acrimonious.”
Mills pointed out that Guardiola’s attempt to greet De Bruyne was rebuffed, suggesting that the midfielder’s frustration stemmed not only from the result but also from being limited to just 15 minutes of playing time. The tension between De Bruyne and Guardiola was palpable, and it remains to be seen how this will affect the team’s dynamics going forward.
Guardiola acknowledged the need for reinforcements, particularly with several key players sidelined due to injury. However, he emphasized the importance of signing players who can contribute in the long term, rather than just providing a short-term fix. The City manager conceded that the team’s injury woes have been ongoing for an extended period, with eight important players currently unavailable.
“We have to try to find a solution,” Guardiola said. “We have to talk with the club and see what we can do. But it’s not easy. We need players who can help us not just for a few months, but for the next three, four, or five years.” As City’s struggles continue, Guardiola’s words will be closely scrutinized, and the pressure to deliver results will only intensify.
