De Bruyne will turn 34 in June and knows his next move after City could prove to be the last of his long and glittering career.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">City have already discussed building a statue of De Bruyne outside the Etihad, as a lasting tribute to his remarkable contribution to the club&#8217;s recent era of success.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/0_GettyImages-1551232196.jpg\" alt=\"Lionel Messi and David Beckham\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>David Beckham wants to put De Bruyne in his star-studded team alongside Lionel Messi(Image: Mike Ehrmann\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">De Bruyne has won 16 trophies since joining City in 2015 and will look to finish on a high by helping Pep Guardiola&#8217;s side win the <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/fa-cup\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">FA Cup<\/a> and a <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/champions-league\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Champions League<\/a> place.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">When asked about De Bruyne&#8217;s future, Guardiola said: &#8220;I think he has to decide, he has to talk, because now with the World Cup, it\u2019s a new contract, legally, you know.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">&#8220;If he can continue playing football in another place, it depends on the risk, playing there for the contracts, or injuries, or the future. So, honestly, I don\u2019t know. I think the club has to talk to him, or he has to say what he wants to do.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">&#8220;Of course, it\u2019s the first time you play this competition and at the end of the first three games, he\u2019s still under contract. After that, if we go through, I don\u2019t know. So I cannot answer. Kevin has to tell and after that legally can it be possible or not.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \"><a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/chat.whatsapp.com\/KLOUWbmSQd86jj7ZbbVOHa\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Join our new WhatsApp communityLink opens in a new tab.\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Join our new WhatsApp community<\/a> and receive your daily dose of <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"MirrorLink opens in a new tab.\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Mirror<\/a> <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/sport\/football\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"FootballLink opens in a new tab.\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Football<\/a> content.
