De Bruyne reacts to Alexis Sanchez snubbing Man City

Manchester City midfielder, Kevin De Bruyne, has insisted said his side can succeed without Alexis Sanchez, after he chose to join rivals Manchester United this week.

Sanchez had been linked with City, before completing a move to Old Trafford on Monday.

De Bruyne says there were other good players, who would jump at the chance of playing at the Etihad Stadium.

“The board is busy with that. If it goes, it goes. If it doesn’t go, it doesn’t matter, we will still do what we need to do, with or without him.

“He chose United. OK, there are a lot of good players. If they want to come, they want to come, and otherwise we will do it with our team,” he told reporters.
