Kevin De Bruyne left fans in stitches after his hilarious response to Manchester City teammate Jack Grealish winning the club’s February Player of the Month award.
Grealish has been faced with mounting criticism over his run of form at the Etihad after City splashed out a hefty £100m transfer fee to Aston Villa in 2021.
The 27-year-old City star played in all seven of his side’s matches in February, with Grealish scoring once and registering two assists for Pep Guardiola’s men.

Grealish’s impressive form last month earned him a nomination for City’s Etihad Player of the Month award alongside the likes of Nathan Ake and Ruben Dias.
The former Villa player was voted by City fans as their pick for Player of the Month, with Ake coming second and Dias securing third place.
De Bruyne previously teased Grealish with the prospect of scooping a Player of the Month award, with the City playmaker firing a cheeky dig at his teammate again.
