Back in Action with a Fresh Style
Manchester City’s midfield maestro Kevin De Bruyne has made a head-turning return to training sporting a daring new hairstyle. After an extended break following his participation in the Euros with Belgium, the 33-year-old has clearly made the most of his time off.
Summer Vibes and Stylish Trims
De Bruyne, seen enjoying the party scene with Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk and sunbathing in Ibiza with his wife Michele Lacroix, didn’t just soak up the sun; he also took a trip to the barber for a bold new look. The Premier League star now rocks a slicked-back hairdo with a tiny bun, a stark contrast to his previous styles.
Fan Reactions and Lookalike Banter
Fans were quick to react to De Bruyne’s transformation, with many drawing comparisons to teammate Erling Haaland’s signature style. Social media buzzed with comments like “The Erling Haaland influence is wild” and playful remarks likening him to “Haaland as midfielder.” Some even drew parallels with Chelsea‘s English talent, dubbing him “Kevin De Gallagher.”
From Quiff to Bun: De Bruyne’s Hair Evolution
This isn’t the first time De Bruyne has surprised fans with a hair makeover; he previously returned from injury last season with an eye-catching quiff. As Manchester City gears up to defend their title, starting with a challenging fixture against Chelsea on August 18, De Bruyne’s new look seems to signal his readiness for the upcoming season.
Commitment to City Amid Transfer Whispers
Despite rumours of interest from Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad, De Bruyne appears set to remain with Manchester City. He has openly discussed the allure of potential moves in the twilight of his career, citing the financial benefits and personal considerations with his family’s attachment to England. Yet, with a year left on his contract, his immediate future seems rooted at the Etihad Stadium.
Transfer Season Heats Up
As the summer transfer window unfolds, Chelsea’s negotiations over Romelu Lukaku’s future and Conor Gallagher’s prospective move to Atletico Madrid are just a couple of the stories making headlines. Meanwhile, West Ham is edging closer to securing Aaron Wan-Bissaka from Manchester United, and Man City’s own Ederson is amidst speculation about a possible departure amidst Saudi Arabia interest.
With the transfer market in full swing, keep an eye out for the latest deals and insider gossip as the new season approaches.
