Chelsea send De Bruyne on loan to Bayer

Chelsea send De Bruyne on loan to Bayer

30 May 2013 - 14:19

Bayer Leverkusen have completed a loan move for Belgian youth international Kevin de Bruyne. The German side will take the attacking midfielder for the whole of next season, despite last minute interest from Borussia Dortmund.

  • Confirmed Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Crystal Palace, Joao Pedro starts
  • Fulham want to sign Liverpool left-back

  • De Bruyne is one of the hottest properties in European football and has long been expected to eventually be an important part of Chelsea's first team.



    “Maybe we have come too close to Borussia Dortmund,” said Chief Executive of Leverkusen, Wolfgang Holzhauser. “Maybe Dortmund wants to keep us down as a competitor.”
