Manchester City have bolstered their midfield ranks with the signing of highly-rated Belgian Kevin de Bruyne from VfL Wolfsburg on a six-year contract, the twice Premier League champions said on Sunday. The fee was not disclosed but British media reported it to be in the region of 50 million pounds ($76.92 million). "I want to reach the highest level possible as a player and I think the most important thing is that at the end of the season we can be happy and maybe have some titles," playmaker De Bruyne told the City website (www.mcfc.co.uk). "I think this is the most important for the Club, the players and for the fans of course." The 24-year-old has forged a reputation as one of Europe's most creative midfielders with 33 assists in 72 appearances in all competitions for the German side. De Bruyne became City's fourth signing of the close-season following the acquisitions of England internationals Raheem Sterling and Fabian Delph and Argentina defender Nicolas Otamendi.
