Last week, Kevin de Bruyne announced that he would leave Man City at the end of the season after his contract expired. For The Citizens fans, this is definitely a farewell that left many regrets.
In the 10 years of association since 2015, the Belgian midfielder has left many impressions in their journey to conquer all their titles, from 6 Premier League titles to the first Champions League trophy in history.
De Bruyne has always received respect and affection from fans, teammates, experts and even opponents. As Man City's number 1 star, De Bruyne received special treatment.
According to Celebrity Net worth, he has an estimated net worth of £55 million (US$70 million). Since 2021, De Bruyne has pocketed a whopping £400,000 a week in salary - more than any other player in the Premier League. He previously earned £280,000/week from 2018 to 2021. When he first joined the Etihad team in 2015, he received a salary of £150,000/week.
Despite his wealth and success, De Bruyne has always maintained a modest attitude. He rarely makes controversial statements, is not complacent, always silently encourages his teammates, and works side by side with coach Pep Guardiola to overcome difficulties. The 33-year-old midfielder often only shares photos of himself playing, practicing and his daily life with his wife and children.
In particular, he did not hesitate to express his affection for his wife Michele Lacroix. Every time he finishes playing, De Bruyne runs back to the stands where his wife and children are sitting, holding their children in hand and greeting the audience.
He also gave his wife many sweet words on his personal page on special occasions, or intimate actions at public events.
The couple met in 2013 on social media, and started dating in 2014. A year later, the couple left Germany to live in England during De Bruyne's career journey.
Michele gave birth to his first son, Mason Milian De Bruyne, in 2016. In 2017, the couple got married after a romantic proposal ceremony under the Eiffel Tower. A year later, their second son Rome was born. They welcomed their youngest daughter, Suri in 2020.
De Bruyne's wife, Michele accompanies her husband to almost every match at club or national team. She often takes her 3 children to the stands to support De Bruyne.
De Bruyne's eldest son, Mason, is a big Man City fan. According to this midfielder, the boy really likes striker Erling Haaland and wants to have his hairstyle look like his idol. The lovely, carefree moments of the children of De Bruyne made fans excited and loved their small family.
