Alan Shearer recently shared high praise for Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, stating that he is on a different level compared to any other player.
This commendation comes after De Bruyne assisted four of Erling Haaland’s five goals during City’s 6-2 victory over Luton Town in the FA Cup.
Following this impressive performance, De Bruyne has been the center of attention in discussions, with Shearer expressing his amazement at the Belgian’s brilliance.
Shearer highlighted De Bruyne’s exceptional quality, particularly his ability to set up goals for his teammates with precision and selflessness.
He said: “De Bruyne is on a different planet, he’s just outrageously good. For a forward, we’ve said it, you know when he gets it you move, you’re off, he’s going to find you.
Since his transfer to Manchester City from Wolfsburg in 2015 for £55 million, De Bruyne has accumulated an impressive record of 98 goals and 165 assists in 368 appearances across all competitions.
His contributions on the field have consistently been lauded, earning him high ratings from platforms like SofaScore. Notably, he was the second-highest-rated player in the match against Luton, just behind Haaland.
De Bruyne’s exceptional performance in City’s Treble-winning campaign last season, where he provided 31 assists in 49 appearances, and his fourth-place finish in the Ballon d’Or rankings further solidify his status as one of the top players in the world. Shearer believes that De Bruyne’s impact will be crucial in City’s quest to defend their titles this season.
Overall, De Bruyne’s combination of goal-scoring and playmaking abilities make him a vital asset for Manchester City, with his skill and vision setting him apart from his peers. It is clear that his contributions will continue to play a significant role in City’s success moving forward.
