He keeps patting the nail when he gets the question. Kevin De Bruyne rarely hides his opinion. Certainly not when it comes to the overcrowded agenda, with matches for club and country every three days. “I’ve been playing without a break for two years now. But nobody listens to the players. ”

Three international matches in seven days. A trip to England, then to Iceland. Then back to the club, where the Champions League quickly follows after the Premier League weekend. When asked whether De Bruyne is concerned about the overloaded agenda, he did not hesitate.

“Sometimes I worry,” says De Bruyne. “Especially when I look at my own situation. I’ve had 8-9 days off. I couldn’t go on vacation because my wife was heavily pregnant. I have not had a holiday. If I keep going until the end of the season, it means I will have played for two years without a break. Especially mentally you need that rest. Your body must be able to heal. (laughs) But nobody listens to the players. Everyone says: you earn good money, you just have to be able to handle it. That’s how it goes. I can handle those comments. I see an injury wave coming. For many players. I know myself. I always give myself one hundred percent. I can’t play at eighty percent. ”

De Bruyne further denied that he is close to a contract extension with Manchester City. He wants to break open his agreement as soon as possible with two years. The intention is there. “I am happy in Manchester. I am open to conversations, but so far I have never spoken to City myself. ”
