BREAKING: Fabrizio Romano Confirms Kevin De Bruyne’s Move to Liverpool – Pep Guardiola Responds.

Kevin De Bruyne Joins Liverpool: Fabrizio Romano Confirms Stunning Premier League Switch

In what will go down as one of the most sensational transfers in Premier League history, Fabrizio Romano has officially confirmed that Kevin De Bruyne will join Liverpool at the end of the season following his departure from Manchester City.

Yes — it’s happening. Here we go.

The Belgian midfielder, long regarded as the heartbeat of Pep Guardiola’s dominant City sides, is crossing one of the most intense divides in English football. And the reactions have been as seismic as the transfer itself.

Guardiola Responds: “It hurts”

Speaking candidly after training, Pep Guardiola addressed the bombshell with rare emotional transparency:

“He’s made his intentions clear — this is where he wants to be,” Guardiola told reporters. “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.”

It’s the end of an era for Manchester City — and the beginning of a shocking new chapter for Liverpool.

A Decorated Departure

De Bruyne leaves Manchester City after a glittering decade that saw him win:

🏆 6 Premier League titles

🏆 5 League Cups

🏆 2 FA Cups

🏆 The 2023 Treble, including the club’s first-ever Champions League

His passing vision, leadership, and big-game brilliance were key pillars in City’s dominance. Few would have predicted his next chapter would take him to Anfield.

Liverpool Fans Celebrate, City Fans Stunned

The internet hasn’t stopped buzzing since Romano’s confirmation.

Liverpool fans are ecstatic, already imagining a midfield trio of De Bruyne, Mac Allister, and Szoboszlai feeding Mohamed Salah.

Manchester City fans are in disbelief — some mourning, others angry, most simply shocked.

“Waking up to this feels like a fever dream,” one City fan posted on X. “KDB in red? That’s betrayal.”

Why Liverpool — and Why Now?

Sources suggest De Bruyne was drawn by the opportunity to take on a new challenge under Liverpool’s evolving post-Klopp project — and potentially to cement his legacy across both ends of the rivalry.

At 34, he reportedly wanted a fresh environment and was intrigued by Liverpool’s tactical plans and Champions League ambitions for 2025/26.

What It Means for the Premier League

This transfer doesn’t just shake up the title race — it reshapes Premier League history. Very few players have crossed this divide. Almost none with De Bruyne’s stature.

And with the league’s most lethal creator now pulling strings at Anfield, Liverpool are sending a clear message: They intend to win now.

Kevin De Bruyne. In red. At Anfield.

Football’s wildest plot twist just became reality.
