Pep Guardiola believes Kevin De Bruyne will be remembered as one of English football's greatest ever players after the Belgian midfielder announced he will leave Manchester City at the end of the season.
De Bruyne, 33, confirmed his decision on Friday in an emotional letter to City's fans, as he called time on his decade-long stay at the Etihad.
He has played a key role in City's era of dominance under Guardiola, winning six Premier League titles and the Champions League.
Guardiola is adamant none of it would have been possible without De Bruyne, and has admitted he will be sad to see him move on this summer.
