De Bruyne’s range of passing demonstrates how the ball appears to be pulled towards his teammates wherever they might be on the pitch. His technique is flawless, his ability to score and play alongside his ability to create is much enjoyed. Even Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is mesmerized with admiration for the vision and creativity of De Bruyne on the pitch. He has been compared to all-time great Lionel Messi in terms of passing talent, positioning him right after Messi.
According to TNT Sports, Guardiola said that it is very difficult to replace some players. But they have to move on and accept the same. He clearly mentioned that Kevin has a unique style of playing. Although Messi is considered the best of all time, Kevin’s uniqueness brings him to the second position without a second thought.

"I try to play as much good football as I can. I just try to do my job," he stated, demonstrating his commitment and passion for the team.
His legacy remains unmatched with 108 goals and 158 assists across 358 games. De Bruyne's influence on Manchester City has been gigantic. He's contributed directly to 250 goals since Pep Guardiola took over as manager. This shows his incredible ability to influence the team in the right way possible.
