De Bruyne has been in fantastic form after returning from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for the first five months of the season, scoring once and assisting on ten goals in 11 appearances.
However, the midfielder was left out of Belgium’s newest roster for their upcoming friendlies against the Republic of Ireland and England.
His current injury has been classed as minor, but it will be a huge issue for City with such a critical match ahead, with keeper Ederson already ruled out against Arsenal due to a thigh injury sustained in last weekend’s 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield.
Belgium manager Domenico Tedesco said of De Bruyne, “I’m not sure if it’s something to do with his hamstrings.” He suffered a groyne injury.
“We learned about Kevin De Bruyne’s injury yesterday. I spoke to both him and the doctor. We resolved to take no risks.
“We want to give him some time to recover.” This is not the time to take chances with our players, three months before the Euros.”
