Man City ace De Bruyne proud of landmark goal - and bragging rights!

Manchester City ace Kevin de Bruyne was delighted reaching 100 goals for the club at Crystal Palace.

De Bruyne scored twice in the 4-2 win.

“Yeah, it's funny. I had a conversation with Erling [Haaland] and Phil [Foden] and said the only goal I want is to score 100 before you guys," he said. “Erling was like 18 behind but he would probably score that in two games!

“It's a proud moment. It means that I've had longevity here. It means a lot of good moments for this club.

“It's been my home, hasn't it? I've come when I was basically still a young kid. Now I'm an older man in this squad and I have three kids who grow up very quickly.

“I've had so many good moments with the team and we won many trophies and parades.

“It's hard to put into context but I appreciate everything that has happened and I think the supporters and club do too."
