The Belgian playmaker became Guardiola's second record holder in terms of 'goal+assist'
In the 35th round of the English Premier League, Manchester City secured another important victory in front of their fans. Josep Guardiola's disciples triumphed over Wolverhampton with a narrow score of 1:0 at the Etihad.

Three points – through De Bruyne's strike

The only goal scored against the visitors was by the team's main playmaker, Belgian Kevin De Bruyne. His precise and powerful shot brought valuable three points to City and brought the team one step closer to a spot in the UEFA Champions League.

A historic achievement from Kevin

With this goal, De Bruyne became the second player under Guardiola to achieve a significant result. He has accumulated 150 points in the 'goal+assist' statistic. Before him, only Lionel Messi had achieved such a result under this coach at Barcelona.

A model of loyalty and efficiency

Kevin De Bruyne joined Manchester City in 2015, one season before Guardiola. In his first season under Manuel Pellegrini, he had a good record with 16 goals and 13 assists.

However, his true shining period began after Guardiola took over the team. The Belgian playmaker has become the author of 92 goals and 158 assists in the last nine seasons. This means he has been productive in almost every game.

On the brink of farewell

Kevin De Bruyne's current contract with Manchester City will expire on June 30. He is the only player who has played the longest for the club and has worked with Guardiola for an extended period, unlike any of his other disciples.

In conclusion…

De Bruyne's journey, statistics, and contributions at City have made him one of the most effective midfielders not only in the team but also in all of English football. His departure will be a significant loss for City, but the legacy he leaves behind will serve as an example for future generations.

What do you think, how legendary was Kevin's career at City? Is he the most important playmaker in the club's history?
