  • Kevin De Bruyne could not help but burst into laughter after his friend gifted him a Manchester United jersey
  • The jersey had De Bruyne's name and number on the back, and the Belgian was polite about it

Fresh off an emphatic 6-3 win over their crosstown rivals Manchester United, Kevin De Bruyne received a surprise gift from his friend a Man United jersey.

De Bruyne's reaction was obviously funny, with the Man City star looking surprised as he held the jersey for pictures. However, there were slight jitters in his body language, afraid fans would slaughter him online for that.

De Bruyne was played a key role for City in Sunday's derby, assisting two goals, including a sublime cross for Erling Haaland to tap in.

When his friend revealed the shirt, De Bruyne was speechless. The midfield maestro held the Man United home shirt with the number 17 on the back and his name written on it, according to Mid Mid Podcast.

Still finding his words, De Bruyne jokingly asked if he should burn it.

"Do I burn it now?. Most dreams are deception, right?".

He then placed the shirt down and did the 'cutting neck' gesture, meaning he absolutely did not like holding the red jersey, although he seemed like someone who could take a joke.

Haaland's move to City has given the playmaker a new lease on life, and if the Norwegian striker intents to break goalscoring records, the Belgian will be a key part.

In 2017, De Bruyne surprised Wolves youngster Connor Ronan by asking for his jersey, according to Wolves.

De Bruyne get a souvenir from Cristiano Ronaldo

Sports Brief earlier reported on De Bruyne receiving a souvenir from Ronaldo after the derby last Sunday.

Ronaldo was an unused substitute during the match and was visibly frustrated for not getting some minutes.

It is believed that De Bruyne walked to an interview with the Ronaldo jersey, which he had asked for before the match, according to reports.
