(Reuters) - Kevin de Bruyne's legacy will not be defined by the outcome of Saturday's Champions League final, the midfielder said ahead of Manchester City's showdown against Serie A side Inter Milan in Istanbul.
De Bruyne has won five Premier League titles, two FA Cups and five League Cups at City but European success has eluded the Belgian, who came closest to lifting the elusive trophy in 2021, when City suffered a 1-0 defeat against Chelsea in the final.
"Will it help? Yes. But one 90 minutes doesn't define a career. I am on around 700 games. One 90 minutes out of 700 doesn't define my career. But obviously it helps."
