A large era ends: De Bruyne announces goodbye to Manchester City

Kevin de Bruyne leaves Manchester City. The 33-year-old announced this himself.

Kevin de Bruyne leaves Manchester City at the end of the season! The Belgian international announced this on Friday afternoon on his own Instagram channel. The 33-year-old’s contract expires after this season has been completed.

“I get to the point right away and would like to let you know that this will be my last months as a Manchester City player,” announced de Bruyne in the said contribution. “Every story comes to an end, but that was definitely the best chapter.”

“I had no choice but to return everything!”

It was not easy for him to write these words, but now the day has come. The former Werder and Wolfsburg star has shaped an era in the past ten years. “This city, this club, these people … gave me everything. I had no choice, except to return everything! And advise you, we won everything,” wrote the captain of the Belgian national team.

In 2015 the midfield driver switched to the Citizens and subsequently celebrated numerous successes at the Skyblues. Among other things, six championships in the Premier League and the title in the Champions League in the 2022/23 season include. The Belgian won the FA-Cup twice, the league cup five times. De Bruyne was 413 times in the field for Manchester City. How it goes on for him remains open.

This year the Pep Guardiola team is still fighting for the FA Cup and the club World Cup. In the league, de Bruynes team players are only in fifth place before the end of the season, with 22 points behind leaders FC Liverpool.
