After ten seasons at Manchester City, is Kevin De Bruyne about to leave the Eastlands? Asked about his future, the Belgian attacking midfielder, at the end of his contract next June, left doubt.
“Honestly, I don’t know. At the start of the season there were talks planned, but I got injured at Brentford. It was supposed to last a few days, but I missed eight to nine weeks. So I put the question of my future aside. I’m not too worried. Everything is fine. I’m happy, I just want to play good football again and the future, we’ll see. I’m the only one who can give you answers, but I don’t know.” confided KDB this Monday. He also clarified that if no negotiations took place, the 2024-25 season could well be his last with the Skyblues.
“He has to play like the best Kevin possible”
For his part, Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola assured that De Bruyne would only stay if he felt capable of continuing to play at the highest level. “Kevin, I’m sure, will be honest. He will want to finish here after this season or next, or the one after that, at his best. I don’t think he’ll be here if he doesn’t think he can be the Kevin that can produce and help the team like he has over the last decade. I’m sure of it”, explained the Catalan coach.
“In these kinds of situations, like in the case of David Silva, he will decide what is best for him and for the team, because I am sure he does not want to find himself in a situation that is not for him. not possible. I’m not saying play every three days for 11 months, but when he does play, he has to play like the best Kevin possible, and unfortunately with the injuries he hasn’t been able to do that.”he recalled.
