Kevin De Bruyne has told Thierry Henry he is gunning for his Premier League assists record.
The Manchester City midfielder has 16 goals in England's top flight this season before the campaign was placed on hiatus due to the coronavirus outbreak last month.
Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry has 20 assists for Arsenal in the 2002-03 campaign.
"To be honest, I feel Like I'm on 17 – I know they took one away from me at Arsenal," The City star chuckled.
"I don't know why they did it, I still don't understand it.
"I always joked with Henry in the national team, even at Vincent Kompany's testimonial this year. I saw him and said 'I'm coming for you this year'.
"To have 16 assists is really nice and speaks really well for a creative player. But if it doesn't happen we still go on.
"When you get something [a record] it fills you with pride because I had it in Germany and it's nice to see you broke some records."
