After making history with Pep Guardiola for nearly a decade at Manchester City, Kevin De Bruyne now has the chance to do the same alongside another great manager in Antonio Conte at Napoli.
If the Belgian captain ends up becoming a success in Italy, that could further embellish his legacy as the midfield maestro has already taken the Bundesliga as well as the Premier League by storm.
First things first, Kevin De Bruyne will be hoping to help Napoli win Serie A once again and retain the Italian top-flight title for the first time in their history.
Napoli fans mobbed De Bruyne upon his arrival and it seems like the supporters have full faith that he could help them attain further greatness.

But the Sun have reported that Antonio Conte has been asking De Bruyne about his former City teammate.
Furthermore, the Sky Blues legend has asked the Serie A champions to sign the 29-year-old.
De Bruyne is believed to have given a “glowing” assessment about Grealish, who was offered to Napoli while speaking to Conte as well.
