De Bruyne's return will be special: applause, tributes, and intense emotions will await him from former fans, former teammates, and coach Pep Guardiola. Every corner of the stadium tells his story, from lightning dribbles to brilliant passes, celebrating one of the most important protagonists in City's recent history. The club's sports center, as highlighted by TuttoNapoli, reflects the same affection.
