Belgium are out of the tournament after losing 1-0 to France in the round of 16 of Euro 2024.
In the final moments of the game, Jan Vertonghen's own goal ended De Bruyne's dream of winning the European Championship.
In 2010, 19-year-old midfielder Kevin De Bruyne made his national team debut in a friendly against Finland. Over the past 14 years, Belgium's status in international football has risen dramatically.
Kevin De Bruyne led Belgium to a third-place finish at the World Cup in 2018, but Belgium have failed to reach the semi-finals at major tournaments since.
Asked after the defeat to France if it meant the end of his international career, De Bruyne told reporters: "It's too early to answer. Let me digest this loss first. It's been a long season. I need to take a break. And then think about the future. ”
Kevin De Bruyne will return to Manchester City later this month. The English champions are scheduled for pre-season in the United States, where they will play against the likes of AC Milan, Barcelona and Chelsea.
