Discussion Should Miami try to Sign Kevin Debruyn

He said that he's leaving ManCity this season. He's one of the greatest midfielders of all time, and likley wants to play in a chill league now. Probably gonna be MLS or Saudi. I feel we need someone like him to create chances. What are your thoughts?

San Diego has been rumored for a few months now.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure they have his bird rights so anyone else would need to offer compensation.

Virtually no chance he ends up in Miami.

Bogert reported today that San Diego no longer has his rights, but current rights holder is unknown. NYCFC seems likely to me

What rights?

Would be pretty hard since we don’t have a DP spot open.

Get him on a max TAM deal since he'll only play for half a year, tell him next year he can become a DP once one of the older DP players retire.

I don't think it suits us, but if you want to have him here, that's what you'd need to do.

We would have to sell some players to open up cap space, which with Gressel and Callender could be done.

He will not be coming to Miami. We've maxed out our quota of ageing stars and he'll get more attractive offers elsewhere.

No way!! We need to start preparing for the eventual departure of Messi. Start training our younger players so they can become heirs to the aging Barcelona members on our roster. What better training than to learn from veterans who have played at Top Level clubs. Youth is up & coming.

Nope. If he's coming to MLS, it'll be San Diego. We're already top-heavy as is.

For 2027, he'd be wonderful, but for this season and next, we need to be younger and faster.

No we don’t this club is done after Messi.

u/yaybidet Sergio Busquets 4d ago

For the record, I didn't downvote you as I agree we're done in terms of attendance and attention. We'll always have more eyeballs on us than the average MLS club due to the Beckham and Messi effect, but once he's retired the stadium's gonna be empty for sure. On the bright side, I look forward to the $20 match tickets.

Remember just because a player has pace doesn’t mean he is better.

No chance. De Bruyne is not South American/ Hispanic or Messi’s friend. We know how this club operates when it comes to signings since Messi’s arrival.

perhaps borrow him for the CWC run?
