The Spanish champions Real Madrid have reportedly made contact with the agent of Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne, who has been sensational for the Citizens.

The 26-year-old Belgium international has been in impressive form for City this term, scoring five times and providing 10 assists in all competitions so far this season.

De Bruyne’s performance has reportedly alerted Madrid chiefs, and City Watch suggests that the midfielder’s representative Patrick De Koster has already been reached out to.

Los Blancos have yet to make an official approach to the Manchester giants, and the former Wolfsburg man is likely to dissuade the La Liga giants from tabling a bid.

Paris Saint-Germain have also been credited with an interest in De Bruyne, who could extend his contract at the Etihad Stadium in the coming weeks.
