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.

  • Chelsea have held talks for Ayyoub Bouaddi
  • Chelsea want Newcastle star to replace Cucurella?
  • 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.<br />

    “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.”
