Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne has expressed satisfaction with Antonio Conte's departure from Napoli, stating that their visions of football did not align. In a recent interview, De Bruyne said, 'I'm happy Conte left Napoli, we have different visions of football.'
De Bruyne, who has been a key figure at Manchester City under Pep Guardiola, is known for his preference for possession-based, attacking football. Conte, on the other hand, is renowned for his pragmatic and defensive approach, which has brought success at clubs like Juventus, Chelsea, and Inter Milan.
The Belgian international's comments come amid ongoing speculation about his future at Manchester City, with his contract set to expire in 2025. However, De Bruyne has not directly linked his remarks to any potential move to Napoli or other clubs.
Napoli, who won the Serie A title in 2023, have undergone significant changes this season, including the appointment of a new manager after Conte's exit. The club is currently rebuilding under new leadership, aiming to maintain their competitive edge in Italian football.
