- De Bruyne turned 33 on Friday
- Receives birthday message from wife
- Man City ace playing for Belgium at Euros
WHAT HAPPENED?
De Bruyne has been away from his family while he plays in Euro 2024 for Belgium. Incidentally, the former Wolfsburg star turned 33 on Friday and now his wife, Michele, has sent a loving message to him on Instagram.
WHAT MICHELE LACROIX SAID
In her Instagram story, she posted a photo of De Bruyne and his three kids, with the words: “Happy birthday to our day 1. We love you Kevin De Bruyne.”
She also posted an old photo of the couple together.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
De Bruyne has proven to be one of the best players in the world over much of the last decade. But, time waits for no one and the Belgium international is nearing the end of his career. He, and his supporters, will hope he still has a few more years left in him yet.
WHAT NEXT?
De Bruyne will be focusing on securing Belgium their first-ever major international trophy at the Euros this month. His side take on one of the tournament favourites, France, in their last-16 tie on Monday evening.
