QATAR 2022: IT COULD BE MY LAST WORLD CUP – KEVIN DE BRUYNE
Manchester City midfielder, Kevin De Bruyne has admitted next month’s World Cup could be his last.
The Belgium international will be taking his family to Qatar so his children can see him play at a World Cup for the first time.
The 31-year-old played for Belgium when they finished third in Russia four years ago and reached the quarter-finals in Brazil in 2014 but now hints that this could likely to be his last chance with his national team.
He said: “My family are going over for the group stages. I am obviously 31 and I don’t know what will happen in four years. This is the first time my kids can come to the World Cup.
“That is why they are coming. It will be special, an event I don’t want them to miss. They are six, four and two. The eldest two of them follow the football a bit but the daughter, not really, but she can go and enjoy the sun and play in the pool.
“I am excited. It will be the third one and it is always special. These events are great as everyone is watching it. It is big but there is no point to stress about it. It is my third time, I understand what is coming and I cannot speak for someone else who will be there for the first time.
