Kevin De Bruyne has expressed uncertainty regarding his future at Manchester City, revealing that contract extension talks have been postponed due to a thigh injury. The Belgium midfielder, who has been sidelined since September, has managed only nine appearances this season, with most of those coming as a substitute in recent matches as he works his way back to full fitness. De Bruyne acknowledged that while contract negotiations were expected to take place earlier in the season, his injury forced him to put those discussions on hold. He emphasized that his primary goal is to regain full fitness and perform well for the team, and that any future decisions about his contract will come when the time is right. "I am not too obsessed with things," he stated, adding that if no talks take place, this could be his final season at Manchester City.
The 33-year-old midfielder, who joined Manchester City in 2015 for £55 million, shared that he had brief discussions with the club last summer about his future, but those conversations were cut short due to his injury. Having been an essential player for the club under manager Pep Guardiola, De Bruyne’s contributions on the field have been undeniable. Guardiola, who has played a key role in developing De Bruyne into one of the top midfielders in world football, commented that the Belgian star aims to finish his career at City on a high note. He expressed confidence that De Bruyne will only stay at the club if he feels he can continue to deliver at the level he has for the past decade.
Despite being linked to a move to Saudi Arabia last summer, where he could have earned a substantial amount of money, De Bruyne remains focused on recovering from his injury and contributing to Manchester City. He mentioned that he was open to different opportunities, including a potential move abroad, but at this moment, he is concentrated on returning to top form. De Bruyne made it clear that he does not dwell too much on his contract status and is more concerned with getting back to playing competitive football. As he continues his recovery, his future at Manchester City remains uncertain, but his focus remains on regaining his best form and continuing to play the game he loves.
