Kevin De Bruyne warns against a hasty resumption of Premier League play.
“I have no idea when we’ll be playing again. We haven’t played for six weeks. Normally we would need three or four weeks’ preparation. If we start right away, everyone will be injured after a few games. That can’t be the intention,” the Manchester City Belgian told Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws.
The midfielder is also bringing a season break into the game. “I’d be sad if the season was abandoned after such a good year, but if it avoids problems for next season, it has to be done,” explained the City star, whom an early season abandonment would also affect personally. With 16 assists, he is currently chasing the draft record of Thierry Henry, which is 20. In De Bruynes’ home country of Belgium, the season has already been prematurely abandoned and FC Bruges declared champions.
De Bruyne: “May cause problems
Above all, De Bruyne believes that clarity is important in the near future. “To wait so long to make a decision can cause problems for next season. It’s not as if we have a very long summer break and can simply change everything around,” explained the 28-year-old, who currently occupies second place in the standings with the Citizens.
De Bruyne also supports the decision to postpone the European Championship until 2021. For him and his national team-mates this is no problem, on the contrary: they are even more motivated to win the tournament. “The difference of one year is not dramatic,” explained De Bruyne, who wore the jerseys of Werder Bremen and VfL Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.
He himself had been quarantined some time ago, after his wife and sons showed symptoms of COVID-19. “The most important thing is that everyone is healthy. “Two weeks ago, they were experiencing symptoms. First the youngest son was sick, then the oldest, and then my wife. I don’t know if they had Corona, but we isolated ourselves and now everyone is back to the way they should be,” explained the Belgian.Kevin De Bruyne warns against resuming Premier League play too soon.
