Kevin de Bruyne to leave Manchester City at the end of the season

Kevin de Bruyne confirmed that Manchester City will leave when his contract expires at the end of the season.

Belgium’s midfielder joined City in 2015 and was the main pillar of their success, where he won six titles in the Premier League, two of the FA Cup, five league Cup, and one champions.

However, the injuries have reduced its influence over the past two seasons and confirmed in a post on X that he will leave the union soon.
