Manchester City attacker Kevin De Bruyne has told Thierry Henry he is coming for his Premier League assists record.

Arsenal legend Henry provided 20 assists during the 2002/03 Premier League, the most by any player during a single campaign.

De Bruyne is currently on 16 for this season and thinks he can break Henry's record.

"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."
