Remember me with joy – Kevin De Bruyne bids farewell to Manchester City fans

A tearful Kevin De Bruyne bade farewell to Manchester City fans as he said he hoped they would remember him “with joy”.

The Belgian made his 142nd and final home appearance for the club in Tuesday’s 3-1 win over Bournemouth, coming within inches of capping it with a goal when he hit the crossbar in the first half, before an emotional on-field presentation after the match.

Pep Guardiola could be seen crying too as videos of tributes from former team-mates including Sergio Aguero, Fernandinho, and Vincent Kompany, club great Mike Summerbee and admirers including Thierry Henry were played on the big screen.
