October 31, (THEWILL) – Kevin De Bruyne has acknowledged that he might not play in another World Cup after Qatar 2022.
The 31-year-old is still one of the world’s top players and will feature for a Belgian team that is always a strong contender for the World Cup trophy. In 2014, he was part of the team that advanced to the quarterfinals and four years later, they finished third.
De Bruyne has acknowledged that he is eager to make the most of the forthcoming competition because he is unsure if he will have another opportunity to win the World Cup with age no longer in his side.
He had reasons why this was special for him, saying: “My family are going over for the group stages. I am obviously 31 and I don’t know what will happen in four years. This is the first time my kids can come to the World Cup. That is why they are coming. It will be special, an event I don’t want them to miss.
They are six, four and two. The eldest two of them follow the football a bit but the daughter, not really, but she can go and enjoy the sun and play in the pool. I am excited. It will be the third one and it is always special. These events are great as everyone is watching it.
