Premier League stars have revealed how to pronounce their names - you've been pronouncing some of the best players' names wrong all this time.

For example, have you been saying Bruno-no Fer-nanj...? Or Kev-in De Bruh-ner...?

Well, if you haven't, then you've been pronouncing the names of Bruno Fernandes and Kevin De Bruyne wrong.

The likes of Dominik Szoboszlai, who has starred for Liverpool since his summer move, Joao Palhinha, Bryan Mbeumo and Kaoru Mitoma, among others, feature in the video shared by the Premier League on social media.

Joao Palhinha - Joo-wow Pow-lee-nia

Sasa Kalajdzic - Sasha Ka-liez-itch

Kevin De Bruyne - Kev-in De Bruh-ner

Needless to say, fans online admitted they've been pronouncing their names wrong all this time.

A second tweeted: "Any others hoping to see John McGinn turn up at the end of this?"

A third added: "I think some of the players don’t know how to pronounce their own names."

A fourth said: "My whole life was a lie."

Another joked: "Lmaoooo everyone of us have been wrong then."
