The 22-year-old winger is set to complete a £16m move to the Bundesliga outfit after making just two league starts for the Blues this season.
And the Belgium international was so desperate to get out of Stamford Bridge, he drove to Germany according to reliable Belgian journalist Kristof Terreur.
A quick check of Google Maps reveals the journey is a slog of around nine hours.
It remains to be seen if De Bruyne simply couldn’t get a flight to Wolfsburg or whether he was keen to keep the same car he had been using in London.
Whatever the case, it sounds like the former Genk star was in no mood to hang around at Stamford Bridge.
