Lauryn Goodman, identified as the mistress of Manchester City player Kyle Walker, is reportedly facing obstacles in acquiring tickets for Euro 2024 through official channels.
Walker, who has two children with Goodman outside of his marriage, is seeking to repair their relationship and avoid distractions during the tournament.
The Football Association is also focused on maintaining team focus and ensuring that Goodman does not attend matches, despite her reported intention to bring her son to watch Walker play.
A source is said to have told the Mail: “Lauryn has been saying she will be at the games this summer because Kyle promised their son tickets, but that sets off massive alarm bells for the squad’s team behind the scenes.
There are special seating areas at each of the matches which are allocated to players and staff for their families and friends, and quite often those tickets get passed on and shared around between those close to the team – and there’s no doubt Kyle’s wife Annie will be there with their kids.
But Lauryn has been saying she will get hold of some tickets and go along too which would cause massive problems.
There’s no way any will be issued directly to her the way things are currently, but she could try to get them by another means or through friends within the game – she knows a lot of players and football agents.
The manager and the team need total focus on the games. Any distraction will be totally clamped down on. Everything in their power, they will do it. Nobody wants a circus ruining their chances.”
Goodman is said to have told friends that Walker wants her in Germany this summer as he is keen for “Kairo to see me play”, but those claims have been contradicted by the Mail’s source – who says no such invitation has been extended.
Kilner, who recently welcomed the couple’s fourth child, is anticipated to be present at Euro 2024. England, among the top contenders in pre-tournament betting, will kick off their campaign against Serbia on June 16th.
