Pep Guardiolacoach of the Citizens, announced this Saturday that Kyle Walker (34 years old, 15 Premier League games this season) asked to leave Manchester City during this winter transfer window to continue his career abroad. An option that would also be very interesting for Milan, ready to take advantage of the situation to give Conceicao a valuable reinforcement for the defense.
At first the Englishman seemed attracted to the Saudi League, where he could live his last seasons with greater serenity compared to the frenzy of the Premier League, but even the idea of remaining at a high level and continuing his experience in the Champions League is not to be discarded.
The AC Milan offer would allow Walker to remain in European football, he underlines The Teameven if at the moment it is only an exploratory rumor on the feasibility of the deal, which would allow the Conceicao team to strengthen in an area of the pitch in which Emerson Royal and Davide Calabria have not been able to give guarantees up to this moment.
In yesterday’s press conference Pep Guardiola confirmed that Kyle Walker he asked farewell to Manchester City. A heavy farewell for the English champions, who are already not going through a golden moment: “Two days ago Kyle asked to explore options to play abroad and end his career”, said Guardiola after Walker did not participated in the 8-0 FA Cup third round victory against Salford. “In his mind, he would like to explore this possibility, go to another country, play his last years somewhere else for many reasons.”
