Manchester City captain Kevin De Bruyne has confirmed that he will be leaving the club at the end of the current campaign, bringing to a close an extraordinary chapter in both his career and the club’s history.
In a heartfelt message posted on social media, the Belgian midfield maestro revealed: “These will be my final months as a Manchester City player.” The announcement ends months of speculation surrounding his future, with his contract set to expire this summer.
De Bruyne, now 33, joined City in 2015 from Bundesliga side Wolfsburg for a then-club-record fee of £54.5 million. Over nearly a decade, he has firmly established himself as one of the finest players ever to wear the sky blue shirt, dazzling fans with his vision, passing range, and leadership on the pitch.
Since his arrival at the Etihad, De Bruyne has amassed an incredible haul of silverware. His trophy cabinet includes six Premier League titles, two FA Cups, five League Cups, and the coveted UEFA Champions League trophy, which he lifted as part of City’s historic treble-winning campaign in the 2022/23 season.
Beyond his statistics and accolades, De Bruyne’s impact has been transformative. Under Pep Guardiola, he became the creative heartbeat of a dominant City side that redefined English football’s tactical landscape.
As the season draws to a close, De Bruyne will aim to add even more silverware to his collection before bidding farewell to the Etihad Stadium faithful, who will no doubt give him a hero’s send-off.
His next destination remains unknown, but wherever he goes, Kevin De Bruyne’s legacy at Manchester City is firmly cemented in football history.
