Kevin De Bruyne has admitted to being “a little bit” shocked at not being offered a new contract at Manchester City, with the 33‑year‑old saying the club took the decision unilaterally. De Bruyne is also unsure if he will be part of City’s Club World Cup campaign that begins in June in the US.
The Belgian is City’s most decorated footballer with 19 honours and is considered one of the club’s greatest players. Yet De Bruyne, who joined in August 2015 from Wolfsburg, will be forced to depart in the close season after the club did not make a fresh offer.
