Since the arrival of Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, many players have come and left the club. However, one player has constantly stayed and improved. The player is none other than Kevin De Bruyne. However, amid all the trophies, Arsenal legend Cesc Fabregas wants him to make certain changes to prolong his career. Fabregas said, “He is one of the players that can adapt in the future when he starts losing his physicality and speed. He will be able to play in midfield. I have no doubt, as a double pivot next to Rodri and run things from there. This is what intelligent and special players do when they are not as sharp as they used to be.”
