De Bruyne repeated his belief that he still has something to offer City, having previously admitted to feeling let down by Pep Guardiola and sporting director Txiki Begiristain's decision to resist extending his contract with the club where he has spent the last decade.
"I don't know what the future will be, but I know that I can still play here," he added.
