FOOTBALL Eto’o fought Kevin De Bruyne for being ‘a bad trainer’ as Jose Mourinho made Salah ‘cry’ at Chelsea
Chelsea legends John Terry and John Obi Mikel have lifted the lid on what made Kevin De Bruyne and Mo Salah ‘flop’ at the club.
However, De Bruyne has denied the rumours in a second post, as reported by BBC, by saying, "All jokes aside, it's not me! Huge fan though!".
The Belgian star’s post was also commented on by his team-mate Erling Haaland by saying, "he is not alone."
The Belgian was Manchester City’s top player last season, helping the team to a treble-winning season.
However, he has only featured once since the start of the new season and has been absent from the squad through injury.
The midfielder picked up a hamstring injury against Burnley in the opening game of the season, with the player needing surgery to become better.
During his time with City, he has tallied 153 assists, the fourth-highest total in Premier League history, with 102 of those coming in the top division.
