What De Bruyne said about Anfield

There is a famous clip of an 11-year-old De Bruyne declaring that Liverpool is his favorite club and Michael Owen is his favorite player.

"I would love to play there one day," he says.

As an adult, De Bruyne stopped short of saying he still wants to play for Liverpool, but he has made no secret of his admiration for the club over the years.



In November 2019, ahead of a meeting between Liverpool and City at Anfield, De Bruyne waxed lyrical over the famous Anfield atmosphere.

"I like Anfield, I like it a lot," De Bruyne said.

"I love people being on you, being noisy, that is what it's all about.

I love the passion of football.

Lately, a lot of new things have been introduced in football, but I still love things how they were in the old days - people shout and get their team forward.

"When Liverpool get that atmosphere, it gives them a nudge and for the other team, it gives a feeling of nervousness.
