Kevin De Bruyne was speaking to the press after Saturday's Champions League final when his interview was marred by a special performance of Fleetwood's Mac Partout song.
The Belgian midfielder, Manchester City's key player in their historic season, was substituted shortly after 35 minutes on Saturday night after picking up a hamstring injury.
He tried to fight the pain but after a few minutes signaled to the bench that he wanted to resign.
De Bruyne admitted in his post-match interview with BT Sport that he felt fine for the first half hour but 'his hamstring was broken'. However, he remains determined to focus on the positives and can be seen enjoying a post-match celebration. Advertisement
In fact, he was doing an interview in the press area of ??Ataturk Olympic Stadium with reporters when he was dragged into the celebration by Jack Grealish and some staff members.
Grealish, who gave an emotional interview after City's 1-0 win over Inter Milan, can be seen holding a loudspeaker playing the tunes of Fleetwood Mac Partout.
After stepping out of the dressing room, the former Aston Villa striker began singing words behind De Bruyne's back before joining his colleagues on the team bus.

TNT Sports took behind-the-scenes footage of the incident and uploaded it to TikTok. How good is it? As mentioned, Grealish was deeply emotional after City won their first Champions League trophy. After playing the full 90 minutes, he spoke to BT Sport about his immediate feelings of success.
"It's something that you work for all your life, isn't it? So happy. I played so badly today, I was horrible," he said. Advertisement
"Winning the treble with this group of players and staff, I swear it's very special. Anyone who knows me knows how important my family is to me and how much I love football. I've worked. my whole life."
"You think back to all the people who helped me along the way. Just to see my family there in the crowd, man, it's emotional. "I told him [Guardiola] that, I just wanted to thank him. He made this happen to me. He put a lot of faith in me, bought me with a lot of money, and even five years. Last time when I was playing badly, he just stood there and talked to me and gave me this platform to hang out."
"That's what I've worked for all my life"
