De Bruyne Admits He Was Glad Conte Left Napoli After Tough Season
Kevin De Bruyne says he was relieved when Antonio Conte departed Napoli after a difficult Serie A campaign. De Bruyne joined the club as a free agent last summer and returned from injury to record nine goal involvements across all competitions. He felt Conte’s defensive 4-5-1 system never allowed him to play in his preferred role. “Football needs to be enjoyable,” De Bruyne explained. “I always gave 100%, but our promises on how we’d play never materialised.” With Conte gone and a new manager on the horizon, De Bruyne says he will reassess his future at Napoli despite having another year on his contract.
