“De Bruyne Ignites Transfer Frenzy After Revealing Liverpool Dream – Open to Offers!”
“Open to Offers: De Bruyne Sparks Transfer Buzz After Admitting Liverpool Dream”
Kevin De Bruyne’s anticipated exit from Manchester City has stirred uncertainty at the Etihad, as questions grow about where the Belgian star will land next.
Earlier this month, De Bruyne confirmed he’ll part ways with City at the end of the season when his contract expires, bringing an end to a remarkable ten-year stint in Manchester.
In an unexpected development, De Bruyne remains open to continuing his career in the Premier League. The 33-year-old hinted that he’s open to new opportunities—so long as the club presents a compelling sporting project.
While he acknowledged he’s no longer in his prime, De Bruyne remains confident in his ability to compete at the highest level, and his openness to Premier League offers has sparked fresh transfer speculation.
De Bruyne sat down for an in-depth conversation with Jan Åge Fjørtoft, offering insight into his future plans.
“There’s always a new challenge out there. Honestly, I don’t know what’s next. If a team approaches me with a strong football vision, I’m willing to listen. I may not be the youngest anymore, but I believe I can still perform at the top. I’m not sure which teams are interested or what their plans are, but I love the game. If the project is right and my family is on board, we’ll make a decision.
“It’s all very recent. Nothing happens overnight in football. I haven’t had time to talk with my family since making the decision. Once I do, I’ll consider the options. Right now, I truly have no idea what comes next.”
De Bruyne has been a transformative figure at Manchester City. Since arriving in 2015 for what was then a club-record transfer fee, he’s become the driving force behind Pep Guardiola’s success. His impact is reflected in an impressive trophy collection that includes six Premier League titles, numerous domestic honors, and the club’s first-ever Champions League triumph in 2023. Throughout his tenure, he’s delivered a wealth of goals, assists, and memorable moments.
Even this season, despite a spell on the sidelines with a hamstring injury, De Bruyne has continued to shine when available. Across 33 appearances in all competitions, he’s registered five goals and eight assists—highlighted by a stellar showing in City’s recent 5–2 win over Crystal Palace.
De Bruyne has always had a special affection for Liverpool. The midfield maestro once revealed that he supported the Reds as a child and idolized Michael Owen. In an old interview from his early years at Genk, a young De Bruyne revealed his dream:
“Liverpool has always been my favorite team, and Michael Owen was the player I looked up to the most.” I’d love to play there one day.”
While an overseas move is still a possibility, De Bruyne hasn’t closed the door on an unexpected twist in his career.
Regardless of whether he stays in England or ventures abroad, Manchester City are preparing to bid farewell to a once-in-a-generation talent.
