"De Bruyne is not leaving"

Pep Guardiola wants Kevin de Bruyne at Manchester City. He does not want to hear about the Belgian's departure to Al Ittihad, who have been linked with the midfielder in recent weeks.

At a press conference, the Sky Blue boss said Kevin de Bruyne would not be leaving the English club. "He is not leaving," he said flatly.

"Kevin is not leaving. If someone wants to leave this summer, we will talk about it and, of course, until the last day of the transfer window we have possibilities for players to come and go, but De Bruyne is not going to leave," Guardiola insisted.

The coach from Santpedor is happy with the squad he has and foresees hardly any changes: "I don't rule out new players as an option, but I think there is an 85, 90 or 95% chance that we will have the same squad".
