£350,000 per week salary is apt considering the class and ability of the Belgium International. Kevin De Bruyne started his Premier League career with Chelsea in 2012 but was loaned out to Werder Bremen in 2014. He signed for Wolfsburg the following season and was the named Footballer of the Year in Germany.

His performances for Wolfsburg made Manchester City sign him in 2015. The entire Premier League witnessed the greatness of De Bruyne when he guided City to their third league title last season.

As a midfielder, De Buryne can not only pick a defense-splitting pass but also score from outside the box. His goal against Chelsea with his left foot season was the highlight of his performance under Pep Guardiola. The Belgian has just returned to action after being out with an injury and looked to guide the team to another league success.
