Kevin De Bruyne to Liverpool? Premier League Stunner on the Cards After City Exit Announcement
In a twist that few could’ve predicted, Kevin De Bruyne’s confirmed exit from Manchester City at the end of the season has set off a frenzy of speculation—and the most surprising contender has now emerged: Liverpool.
Once unimaginable, the idea of De Bruyne donning a Liverpool shirt is gaining traction. Sources close to the Belgian star suggest he’s firmly ruled out a move to Saudi Arabia, signaling his intent to remain in Europe and continue competing at the highest level.
A Move That Would Rock English Football
According to Belgian outlet De Standaard, the 32-year-old midfield maestro—who has been at the heart of City’s golden era, winning six Premier League titles and playing a pivotal role in their historic treble—now wants a new challenge, but not at the cost of leaving elite football behind.
Enter Liverpool. While the rivalry between the two clubs is fierce, a transfer may not be as far-fetched as it first appears. De Bruyne reportedly has personal ties to the Merseyside club, including a grandfather who is a passionate Liverpool supporter. And for a family deeply settled in the North West, Anfield offers a convenient continuation without uprooting their lives.
“It Could Be Possible…”
De Bruyne’s own comments have only added fuel to the fire. Speaking to Viaplay, he said:
“It could be possible. It’s hard to say right now. The decision to leave City has just been made. It’s only been a week, and I haven’t even been with my family yet. We’ll see.”
The subtle openness in his statement has only intensified the buzz.
City Plotting the Future
With their talismanic playmaker preparing to depart, Manchester City is already working on replacements. Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White and Tottenham’s James Maddison are reportedly on the radar, as Pep Guardiola looks to reshape his midfield for a new era.
What’s Next?
As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes are on De Bruyne’s next move. A shift across enemy lines to Liverpool would be one of the most sensational transfers in Premier League history—proof that in football, loyalty often bows to ambition, legacy, and opportunity.
Stay tuned. This story is far from over.
