Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne has threatened to burn a Manchester United shirt.

Appearing on Belgian podcast Mid Mid, De Bruyne was given a new United jersey with his name and number emblazoned on the back.

The host joked “it's a dream," to which De Bruyne replied: “Can I burn it now? Most dreams aren't real".

After last weekend's derby, the midfield maestro was seen leaving the Etihad with Cristiano Ronaldo's shirt.

The Portugal superstar was left on the bench for the contest, so the jersey wasn't match worn although De Bruyne seemed pleased nevertheless.
