A new era is looming in the Manchester City dressing room. A key figure in the squad and a favorite of Pep Guardiola, is open to leaving at the end of this season.
Indeed, English defender Kyle Walker is said to be eyeing a move elsewhere and is already in discussions with another club.
The Man City right-back is reportedly set to return to his youth club, Sheffield United, which has expressed a keen interest in signing him.
If he manages to join Sheffield United, Kyle Walker would have to make significant financial sacrifices by accepting a lower salary.
At Manchester City, he earns €10.64 million, but it’s evident that he would earn less with the promoted Sheffield United.
A return to his youth club is likely to delight his former supporters. Walker’s desire to leave is reportedly strongly linked to his reduced playing time with the Cityzens.
This season, he has featured in 39 matches across all competitions, starting in 27 of them.
The Englishman will then have spent six long seasons at Manchester City, where he has won 12 trophies, including five Premier Leagues and a Champions League, in 254 appearances.
His departure would weigh heavily on the Manchester City team, which would be obliged to find a replacement for him.
