Sparkling with Manchester City for many years, Kevin de Bruyne is experiencing a downturn this season. At 33, the Belgian suffered an injury in September, which kept him away from the field until the end of October. Returning, the midfielder fails to display his best level, just like all of Pep Guardiola’s players for several weeks. At a press conference, the Mancunian coach was questioned about the importance of his player, as well as his future, he whose contract ends in six months.
If the former Bayern Munich coach highlighted the talent of his right-hander, he nevertheless did not confirm that he would indeed be an element of the Skyblues next season: “ He’s had some problems over the last 18 months, like a lot of players, but when he’s consistent and fit he’s a very important player for us. A decisive player. But it all depends on his performance for us until the end of the season, the club’s vision, his age and many other factors. I think the club needs to think about all of this. »
