HE’S the Premier League’s best-paid player and, arguably, its most silky-skilled.
But Manchester City playmaker Kevin de Bruyne opted for the simplest of pleasures as he strolled with his family through a Cheshire village on a rare day off.

KDB kept it even more plain with matching grey tracksuit top and bottoms as he walked with wife Michelle.
The couple, who have three kids, basked in the gentle sun and a goal-den glow from Saturday’s demolition of Liverpool.
The Belgium hero drilled City 2-1 up and then crossed for Jack Grealish to round off a 4-1 Premier League win at the Etihad.
But De Bruyne looked reflective on his walk as he pushed a buggy.
And maybe that’s partly because champions City remain eight points behind leaders Arsenal, albeit with a game in hand.
But with the arrival of British Summer Time, KDB as well as the clocks have sprung forward as the 31-year-old seems to be regaining his peak form.
Grealish’s City-best form might be one reason for that – because the Englishman, for now at least, is overshadowing Pep Guardiola’s overseas brigade.
De Bruyne was snapped in his most comfy, casual attire outside a bus top.
But not even a bus in front of the goal would have stopped City outclassing Liverpool at the weekend.
Mo Salah’s shock opener for the eighth-placed Reds was soon shrugged aside as Guardiola’s men highlighted the sudden gulf this term between last season’s Prem top two.
That made the day for Reds’ boss Jurgen Klopp as grey as KDB’s tracksuit.
