De Bruyne’s Farewell: Man City Star Leaves After Winning It All
Kevin De Bruyne Confirms Manchester City Exit in Emotional Statement After Nine Glorious Years
In a heartfelt message addressed to Manchester City fans this Friday afternoon, Kevin De Bruyne has officially ended speculation about his future at the club.
The Belgian international, whose form has notably declined over the past few months, has decided to part ways with the reigning Premier League champions at the end of the season in June, bringing an end to a legendary nine-year spell with the Sky Blues.
“None of this is easy to write, but every footballer knows this day eventually comes. That day has come for me, and you deserve to hear it from me first,” De Bruyne began.
“Football brought me to you and to this city—to follow my dream, not knowing that this journey would change my life. This city. This club. These people… they gave me everything. I had no choice but to give everything back. And guess what? We won it all,” the Belgian playmaker said, concluding with emotion.
“Whether we like it or not, it’s time to say goodbye. Suri, Rome, Mason, Michèle and I are deeply grateful for what this place has meant to our family. Manchester will forever be stamped in our children’s passports and, more importantly, in each of our hearts. This city will always be our home,” De Bruyne continued in his emotional statement.
With those touching words, a remarkable chapter comes to a close at Manchester City. Fans will undoubtedly cherish the unforgettable legacy left by the former Chelsea and Wolfsburg maestro, who helped shape a golden era at the Etihad Stadium.
