In what has instantly become one of the most astonishing and polarizing moves in Premier League history, Kevin De Bruyne is officially heading to Liverpool following his departure from Manchester City—a transfer that has stunned fans across the footballing world.
Fabrizio Romano has confirmed the deal as complete, sending shockwaves through both clubs. Pep Guardiola, visibly emotional during a media appearance after a training session, addressed the dramatic turn of events.
“He’s made his intentions clear—this is where he wants to be,” Guardiola said. “It’s painful, especially considering the rivalry. He’s a City icon, and although I’m disappointed by his decision, I’ll always value his loyalty and what he gave this club.”
De Bruyne, a central figure in City’s dominant era—amassing six Premier League titles, a historic treble, and a legacy of brilliance—now leaves for their bitter rivals, creating one of the most talked-about transfers in recent memory.
The online reaction has been predictably explosive. Liverpool fans are celebrating what they see as a transformative signing, envisioning De Bruyne orchestrating the midfield alongside Salah, Mac Allister, and Szoboszlai. On the other side, City fans are in disbelief, grappling with the image of their beloved playmaker wearing red.
From a wild rumor to concrete reality—De Bruyne to Liverpool is happening. As Romano puts it: “Here we go.”
This move doesn’t just shift the balance of power in the Premier League—it rewrites part of its history.
