Mason Milan De Bruyne is the son of Manchester City and Belgian star Kevin De Bruyne.
Mason Milan was born on March 10, 2016, and he is the eldest son of father De Bruyne and mother Michele Lacroix.
Mason’s younger brother Rome, was born in October 2018, and in September 2020, Kevin De Bruyne’s third child and first daughter, Suri was born.
Mason Milan De Bruyne is regularly seen in a Manchester City jersey, with his father often bringing him onto the pitch for the Cityzens matches alongside those of the Belgian national team.
Milan, who is currently 8 years old, was brought to Manchester City training in April 2024, ahead of their Champions League second-leg quarter-final clash against Real Madrid.
He was seen hearty and lively, interacting with his father’s teammates and basically having fun while donning the Manchester City jersey.
During an interview after Manchester City won the 2022/23 Premier League title, Kevin De Bruyne comically indicated that he is no longer his son’s favorite player.
His son now apparently loves Erling Haaland, with Mason Milan De Bruyne having the footballer’s shirt and the long locks to copy the Norway international.
Mason Milan was also seen playing football with the striker rather than his dad Kevin De Bruyne during the Premier League title celebrations on the Etihad pitch last season.
My Son Prefers Erling Haaland Over Me – Kevin De Bruyne
Speaking about his son preferring Haaland over him, De Bruyne said: “It is not a problem.
“All three children have long hair. Erling is a superstar. I see that with the kids at my son’s school, too. They all have hair like that. It’s funny.”
It is uncertain if the young chap will join the Manchester City academy, although that might depend on whether his father remains at the Manchester-based club in the coming years.
