Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne
says he can see himself at the Etihad for "a
long time".
De Bruyne - who sat down with Sky Sports'
Jamie Redknapp in the Nissan Match Zone
ahead of a Super Sunday clash with Arsenal
- joined City from Wolfsburg in August 2015
for a fee of £54.5m, signing a six-year
contract.
Since moving to England, De Bruyne has
been one of the standout players in the
Premier League, contributing 25 goals and
45 assists in just 104 games in all
competitions.
And with City currently sitting top of the
Premier League, the 26-year-old says he is
loving life under manager Pep Guardiola.
"Since Pep came to the club, he plays a style
of football I like to play, so it makes it easy
as a player," De Bruyne said in an exclusive
interview with Redknapp.
Kevin De Bruyne is contracted to Man City
until the summer of 2021
"I like it here, it is the perfect environment
and since I came here there has been a lot
of trust in me. I like the project they are
doing from the moment I came here.
"There was an older team \(when I first
arrived), they did a lot of transfers, a lot of
young people, they are building for the
future.
"I like the project and I am really happy here
and I see myself being a long time here."
West Brom 2-3 Man City
Next up for the unbeaten Premier League
leaders is Arsenal at home in front of the
Sky Sports cameras - a fixture of huge
significance for both teams, according to De
Bruyne.
"It is a very important one again. We have
Arsenal and United have Chelsea, so there
are a lot of things that can happen again.
"If we win that game, it means that
somebody else is also going to lose points
with Arsenal.
Kevin De Bruyne \(centre) is relishing
Sunday's clash with Arsenal
"So it puts pressure on the rest, it gives us a
good advantage and it is always handy to
have more points and to put pressure on
the other people."
