Kevin De Bruyne has announced that he will leave Manchester City at the end of the current season when his contract expires. The 33-year-old midfielder, who has been a key figure in City’s success over the past decade, made the emotional revelation in a heartfelt message on social media, calling this his “final months” at the club.
De Bruyne admitted that the decision was not easy but inevitable, noting that all footballers eventually face this moment. Despite playing a reduced role this season due to injuries and squad rotation, he leaves a legacy as one of the Premier League’s all-time greats.
He expressed deep gratitude to the club, fans, and city of Manchester, where he and his family have lived for ten years. “This will always be our home,” he wrote, reflecting on his emotional attachment to the club and its supporters.
De Bruyne joined City in 2015 from Wolfsburg and has since won six Premier League titles, helping the team secure a historic treble in 2023. With 106 goals and 174 assists in 413 appearances, his impact on the club and English football is undeniable.
While he has not confirmed his next move, reports suggest possible interest from MLS and the Saudi Pro League.
