El crack belga del City está a sus 31 años ante la oportunidad de ganar la primera Champions League de su carrera
Kevin De Bruyne está a sus 31 años a cinco días de culminar su extraordinaria carrera con la conquista de la que sería primera Champions League de su carrera, pero el genial centrocampista belga del Manchester City considera que su legado no quedará definido por el resultado de la final del sábado ante el Inter en Estambul.
De Bruyne ha ganado cinco títulos de la Premier League, dos FA Cups, cinco Copas de la Liga y una Community Shield con el City, pero el éxito europeo se le ha escapado después de que en 2021 perdiera la final ante el Chelsea en Oporto (1-0).
"Depende de a quién le preguntes, pero 90 minutos no definen una carrera", sostiene De Bruyne. "Llevo alrededor de 700 partidos. Unos 90 minutos de 700 partidos no definen mi carrera. Pero obviamente ayuda".
Tras ganar la quinta Premier League en las últimas seis temporadas, el City venció el sábado al Manchester United en la final de la FA Cup (2-1) y ahora a por el triplete.
"El Inter no está en la final por ganar a equipos fáciles"
De Bruyne ve así la final dela Champions. "Ojalá podamos rendir lo mejor que podamos... El Inter es un muy buen equipo y las finales están 50-50. Siempre es difícil. Tienes que manejar estos momentos. El Inter tiene grandes jugadores y los respetamos. No están en la final por haber ganado a equipos faciles".
