“It means I will always be part of this club,” De Bruyne said of that honour.
“I always represent a small piece of that and whenever I come back with these guys and with family and friends I will be able to see myself standing around the stadium. I will always be here.
“I think the best way to describe my life with my wife and my three kids is we’ve fit in perfectly. We understand where the club has come to and why the club means a lot to a lot of people.
“Together we’ve built a big future for you guys, for the club to perform the way this club will perform. I know this has been a bit of a tough year for us but I think the team deserves all the support from you guys.
“I know they’re pushing really hard and this team will be back next year pushing for all the titles, so they deserve this.
“I think after 10 years it was about time somebody let me talk a bit and it’s time to say goodbye. I will be back but we love you and see you soon.”
