'It Is Impossible For Man City To Win 4 Trophies'- Kevin De Bruyne

Kevin De Bruyne says the mental and physical toll of chasing the quadruple makes the feat ‘nearly impossible’ for Manchester City.

Having already won the Carabao Cup, City moved a step closer to an unprecedented clean sweep of four trophies by reaching the FA Cup final with a 1-0 win over Brighton on Saturday.

City boss Pep Guardiola described the quad challenge as almost impossible after the game, and De Bruyne agrees the congested fixture list presents a tough obstacle for the team.

“It is nearly impossible. I don’t think it is impossible to win every game, (looking) game by game,” De Bruyne said. “If you see the fixtures coming up – I think every game we play now we are going to be at a disadvantage physically and mentally because we will have a game before the other teams, the other teams will have a rest.

“The Champions League is the same. So, it is difficult.”
