In an emotional revelation, Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne has announced he will leave the club at the end of the current season.
As his contract nears its end this summer, so too does his remarkable ten-year journey at the Etihad Stadium.
Since arriving from Wolfsburg in 2015, De Bruyne has cemented his place among the Premier League’s elite, playing a central role in City’s six league titles under Pep Guardiola and amassing numerous other accolades.
However, persistent injuries since 2023 have disrupted his rhythm and limited his impact on the pitch. While he had once been open to extending his stay, De Bruyne held off on contract talks until he could return to peak fitness.
Now, as the season winds down, De Bruyne has made the tough call to part ways with City. In a heartfelt message shared on social media, he expressed deep gratitude to the club, its supporters, and the city of Manchester, which he said had given him everything.
Reflecting on his journey—from chasing dreams to achieving greatness—De Bruyne said it was time to begin a new chapter.
His departure will leave a significant void at Manchester City, but his legacy as one of the club’s greatest players will continue to inspire for years to come.
