In a recent match, Manchester City's midfielder, Kevin De Bruyne, secured a remarkable victory with a stunning long-range shot.


This goal not only secured the win for his team but also earned him the distinction of being the first player in the Premier League to score from long range in the last seven years.


Kevin De Bruyne is widely recognized for his exceptional talent and skill and has been a pivotal figure in the Manchester City team for several seasons. Nevertheless, despite his acclaimed shooting abilities, long-range shooting hasn't been his strong suit until now.


However, in this particular match, De Bruyne exhibited an astonishing ability to shoot from a distance. Confronted by the opponent's formidable defense, he executed a magnificent curling shot that evaded the goalkeeper and precisely found the far corner of the net.


This goal not only secured the victory but also marked a significant milestone in his Premier League career.


The goal left fans and the media in awe, who showered De Bruyne with praise for his prowess in free kicks and long-distance shots. It also evoked memories of classic long-range goals from the past, underscoring his status as a world-class player with tremendous strength and influence.


De Bruyne's long-range goal not only salvaged the match for his team but also left an indelible mark on his personal Premier League journey. It showcased his versatility and high-level attacking skills, demonstrating to the world his worth as a top-tier player.


The British newspaper The Sun reported that De Bruyne would turn down any offers from Saudi Arabia, irrespective of the compensation offered.


De Bruyne is hailed as the ultimate orchestrator on the field, known for his high activity levels, extensive range of movement, exceptional footballing intelligence, tactical acumen, and match organization.


His precise passes often leave defenders befuddled, making him an invaluable asset, even for the tactical genius, coach Pep Guardiola.


Over the years, De Bruyne has become a legend at Manchester City.


After an initial setback at Chelsea, he honed his skills at Werder Bremen and VfL Wolfsburg before joining Manchester City in the 2015-16 season.


Despite early skepticism and a hefty transfer fee of 76 million euros (approximately 108.7 billion won), De Bruyne quickly justified his price tag.


His debut season saw him score 16 goals and provide 13 assists in 36 games, including cup matches, in 2015-16, and he led the league in assists with 18 in 2016-17.


In the 2019-20 season, he recorded an astonishing 20 assists in the league, matching Thierry Henry's single-season assist record.


In the 2022-23 season, De Bruyne developed remarkable cooperation with Erling Haaland, contributing 10 goals and 31 assists in 49 games.


This remarkable performance helped Manchester City clinch the Premier League, English FA Cup, and even the UEFA Champions League (UCL), with De Bruyne playing a pivotal role as the team's maestro.


At the age of 32, De Bruyne has matured into a seasoned veteran. However, his current season has been marred by a hamstring injury that is expected to keep him sidelined for an extended period.


With two years remaining on his contract with Manchester City, speculation about his future has arisen.


Recent reports suggest that Saudi Arabia is eyeing him for a summer 2024 recruitment, but De Bruyne has expressed no intention of making such a move. According to The Sun, he aspires to conclude his career with Manchester City, if possible, and intends to remain in Europe, even if he departs from the club.
