Reds Make Surprise Offer as Belgian Maestro Considers Stunning Switch After Etihad Exit”
In a move that could send shockwaves through English football, Liverpool have reportedly made an audacious offer to sign Manchester City icon Kevin De Bruyne when his contract expires this summer.
The 33-year-old midfield magician confirmed his City departure last month with an emotional farewell, calling his time at the Etihad “the best chapter” of his career. During nine glittering seasons, De Bruyne lifted 14 major trophies including six Premier League titles, cementing his status as one of the division’s all-time greats.
But contrary to expectations of a move abroad, the Belgian international has dropped tantalizing hints about staying in England. “If teams come with a nice sporting project, I’m able,” De Bruyne recently told reporters. “I know I’m not the youngest anymore, but I can still perform at the highest level.”
Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has now revealed that while Serie A’s Napoli are pushing hard for his signature, Liverpool have already tabled a concrete offer. The prospect of the City legend crossing the Manchester-Liverpool divide would be one of the most controversial transfers in recent memory.
Former Manchester United winger Lee Sharpe believes the gamble could pay off handsomely for Arne Slot’s side. “He’s playing pain-free for the first time in ages and we’re seeing him at his best,” Sharpe told Stadium Astro. “I remember Gary McAllister doing similar for Liverpool late in his career – coming in and dictating games with his quality.”
De Bruyne’s potential arrival at Anfield would add fascinating spice to next season’s title race, with the playmaker having made no secret of his belief that City may have let him go too soon. “I told them I still had a lot to give,” he admitted last month.
As the summer transfer window heats up, all eyes will be on where this Premier League legend chooses to write the next chapter of his remarkable career. One thing’s certain – if he does choose Liverpool, the reaction across Manchester will be explosive.
