Kevin De Bruyne was one of the players who fell short in Mourinho’s plans when he was sold from Chelsea to Wolfsburg in 2014. But KDB took the whole football world by storm upon his return to the Bundesliga. The Belgian was voted ‘Player of the year’ in the 2014/15 season, where he was the main man behind Wolfsburg sensationally finishing second. He was therefore sold to Manchester City, where he won The Treble in the 2022/23-season.
The player who once was deemed unfit for top-level football had now become one of the world's most sought after players. With world-class vision and technical quality, De Bruyne orchestrates the game from the middle of the pitch, picking defense splitting passes and scoring important winners.
