De Bruyne An Ideal Fit For Liverpool, Says Ex-Red

De Bruyne An Ideal Fit For Liverpool, Says Ex-Red

Former English footballer and pundit Stan Collymore believes Kevin De Bruyne would be a perfect addition for Liverpool.

Collymore has insisted that De Bruyne will take his game to another level and improve Jurgen Klopp’s side if he makes a move to Anfield.

The Belgium star was recently crowned Premier League Player of the Season after another impressive season in England where he scored 13 league goals and provided 20 assists, a joint record for the most assist in the English topflight.

Despite winning it all in England, De Bruyne has been unable to achieve continental glory with Manchester City, as their bid to hoist this season’s Champions League trophy ended in a disappointing fashion when they lost to French side Olympique Lyonnais in the quarterfinals.

In his latest column for the Mirror, Collymore, who once played for Liverpool during his playing days, admitted that De Bruyne deserved to win the player of the season award and insists he does not understand why the Belgian has not played for a big club like Real Madrid or Barcelona.

“Kevin De Bruyne fully ­deserves to have been named PFA Player of the Year – he has been Mr Consistency at such a high level,” Collymore wrote.

“But that makes me wonder: Isn’t it time he tested himself at Real Madrid, a rejuvenated Barcelona or – here’s one to put the cat among the pigeons – Liverpool?

“De Bruyne hasn’t yet played for a massive club because Chelsea and Manchester City come with B-grade expectations. At Wolfsburg, it’s a C and Belgium are more of a dark horse than front-runner.

“The only way he can really stamp his greatness on the game is by joining a club at which he’d have A* ­expectations and, at the height of his powers, there isn’t a better time for him to do that. De Bruyne would be the perfect fit for Liverpool.

“He could go in and run a midfield which already has all the attributes to get the best out of him. He could make them a truly great side, one which wins multiple Premier League and Champions League titles."
