In what will be remembered as one of the most surprising transfers in Premier League history, Fabrizio Romano has officially confirmed that Kevin De Bruyne is set to join Liverpool after his departure from Manchester City at the end of the season.
The move is now finalized, and Pep Guardiola has publicly addressed the bombshell development.
Following a recent training session, an emotional Guardiola spoke to the media, acknowledging the reports.
“He’s made his intentions clear—this is where he wants to be,” Guardiola stated. “Given the fierce rivalry between our clubs, it’s hard to believe.
He’s a City legend, and while I’m deeply disappointed by his choice, I have to respect it. It hurts—but his loyalty over the years is something I’ll always appreciate. He’s going… and that’s the reality.”
De Bruyne, who has defined City’s midfield for nearly a decade, leaves behind a decorated legacy—six league titles, a treble, and countless iconic moments.
His decision to join Liverpool, one of City’s fiercest rivals, has left fans and analysts in utter disbelief.
Since the announcement, social media has exploded. Liverpool fans are celebrating wildly, sharing tributes, memes, and fantasies of De Bruyne linking up with Salah, Mac Allister, and Szoboszlai.
Meanwhile, City fans are reeling from the shock, trying to come to terms with the idea of their midfield maestro in red.
What once felt like an outrageous rumor is now undeniable fact.
De Bruyne to Liverpool—it’s real.
As Fabrizio Romano would say: Here we go.
The football world is shaken, and Liverpool supporters are riding the wave of excitement.
