City’s Kyle Walker set to make a move to Bayern

Manchester City defender Kyle Walker is keen on a permanent move to Bayern Munich according to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sports Deutschland.

Advanced discussions are said to be taking place between Walker and the German champions.

After spending six years at Manchester City, the 33-year-old reportedly wishes to leave the club in the summer.

This decision comes following a challenging season for Walker, where he struggled to secure regular playing time under manager Pep Guardiola.

Walker was not included in the starting lineup for Manchester City’s Champions League final victory against Inter Milan, as Manuel Akanji was preferred instead.

This situation has made the English international open to the possibility of a transfer.

The report reveals that whilst Manchester City and Bayern Munich have not yet reached an agreement, all parties are optimistic that a deal can be reached, with Bayern’s head coach Thomas Tuchel proving to be vital in convincing Walker to join the Bavarian club.

The Premier League champions will be eager to offload Walker this summer to ensure he does not depart on a free transfer next year, with the right-back having just one year remaining on his current deal.

Walker has also been linked with a return to his boyhood club Sheffield United, however, this now looks unlikely, with the Blades unable to offer Champions League football.
