“Must be made captain”, “What a guy” – Plenty of MCFC fans drool over “legendary” footage

Speaking to talkSPORT, Man City star Kevin De Bruyne has opened up over potentially taking the captain’s armband on a permanent and official basis – with the Belgian playmaker going on to say he is ‘honoured‘ that many critics support him taking the role.

Leo Messi's statistics are simply staggering. Lionel Messi has scored 700 first-team goals in all competitions for club and country, netting 630 for Barcelona and 70 for Argentina. Messi becomes the seventh player to record 700 career goals for club and country.

De Bruyne, who has been the Sky Blues’ standout performer this campaign, amassing a brilliant 16 assists in the league so far over 2019/2020, is now being touted with the armband following a string of impressive displays.
