Kevin De Bruyne is our main interview in this weekend’s Everton matchday programme.

De Bruyne has been in the spotlight since returning to action following five months on the sidelines with a hamstring injury.

His return has led to much joy in the blue half of Manchester and he talks about his emotions at getting back on the pitch in the Toffees edition of the programme, which is out now ahead of this afternoon’s 12:30 (UK) kick-off.

KDB also discusses his impact since coming back and his assists so far this season, especially the well-drilled pass to set up Julian Alvarez against Burnley.

He talks about the positive emotions in the squad, their drive for more honours and his fantastic relationship with boss Pep Guardiola.

There are match reports from our games against Brentford and Burnley and we have plenty of updates from around the club in our ‘In the City’ news spread, including award wins for KDB, Yui Hasegawa and Oscar Bobb.
