Kevin De Bruyne mocked as Man City star links up with £50-a-time non-iron shirt firm leaving fans in stitches
FOOTBALL fans have been left in stitches over Kevin De Bruyne’s tie-in with a £50-a-time non-iron shirt firm.
The 28-year-old has signed a deal to be the face of US-based clothes firm UNTUCKit who say their garments are specially tailored to be worn untucked and don’t need ironing.
The Manchester City playmaker has been snapped wearing one of the outfit’s checked creations with an awkward smile on his face.
De Bruyne - usually seen in designer brands like Kenzo and Dsquared - took to Instagram to show off the shirt.
He captioned the post: "Remembering back to when people had to tuck their shirts in!"
UNTUCKit shared a snap of the Belgian international in their shirt and wrote on Instagram: “Meet our newest U.K. fan: Premier League champion and Manchester City Midfielder Kevin De Bruyne.
“When he's not on the field, Kevin loves our wrinkle-free shirts for every day and our cozy shirt jackets for layering.
"Join us in welcoming @KevinDeBruyne to Team @UNTUCKit. Read more about UNTUCKit and Kevin at the link in bio.”
Fans were quick to comment on De Bruyne's new look, with many doubting whether he actually has any of the shirts in his wardrobe.
One quipped: “That’s literally the only time he’s worn that shirt.”
Another stated: “He looks really comfortable.”
A third added: “WTF. Can’t see too many of these making their way into Kevs wardrobe.”
De Bruyne was also told: "Gonna be a model after football eh Kev?"
