Manchester City’s star midfielder Kevin de Bruyne has announced on Friday, April 4 that he will be leaving the club in the summer. De Bruyne joined City in 2015 and won 6 Premier League titles with them, establishing them as one of the best sides in England.
The 33-year-old, who has been struggling with injuries in the past few seasons, put out a statement on his X account, stating that he will be moving on from the club in the summer.
“Seeing this, you probably realise where this is heading. So I’ll get straight to it and let you all know that these will be my final months as a Manchester City player. Nothing about this is easy to write, but as football players, we all know this day eventually comes. That day is here— and you deserve to hear it from me first. Football led me to all of you—and to this city. Chasing my dream, not knowing this period would change my life. This city. This club. These people… gave me EVERYTHING. I had no choice but to give EVERYTHING back! And guess what— we won EVERYTHING. Whether we like it or not, it’s time to say goodbye. Suri, Rome, Mason, Michle, and I are beyond grateful for what this place has meant to our family. “Manchester” will forever be on our kids’ passports— and more importantly, in each of our hearts. This will always be our HOME. We cannot thank the city, club, staff, teammates, friends, and family enough for this 10-year ride. Every story comes to an end, but this has definitely been the best chapter. Let’s enjoy these last moments together! Much love,” read the statement from De Bruyne.
