Berlin: Wolfsburg coach Dieter Hecking says he is irritated by constant media speculation on whether Kevin de Bruyne will sign for Manchester City, with the English giants poised to swoop for the star midfielder.

"It's annoying, because the questions are always the same and we can't give a different answer," said Hecking, who steered Wolfsburg to the German Cup last season and this year's Super Cup after beating Bayern Munich on penalties two weeks ago. "I have no desire to answer these questions anymore. This club has made it's position clear." De Bruyne was named Germany's player of the season in 2014/15 and has been outstanding for Wolfsburg -- who finished second behind Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga last season -- scoring 20 goals and contributing 38 assists in all competitions since signing from Chelsea in January 2014.
