Girlfriend of Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne expecting baby boy

Kevin De Bruyne's girlfriend Michele Lacroix has confirmed that she is pregnant with the Manchester City star's baby.

The 24-year-old and his partner uprooted from Germany in the summer after De Bruyne joined City from Wolfsburg for a reported £55m fee.

After scoring twice in three Premier League games, De Bruyne's good fortune has continued as Lacroix announced on Instagram that the couple are expecting a baby boy.

She wrote: "One great man in my life, second on the way."

De Bruyne is expected to play in Wednesday's Champions League match against Borussia Monchengladbach in Germany.

One great man in my life, second on the way 😍👶👪❤️
