So a right back in January now then?

So we jave to get a RB in, don't we?

100% see the Brazilian kid as a RB signing (similar to Josko being a CB to LB signing). Still, think we might need someone a bit more experienced there.

Been a brilliant player for us, but times change. Thanks and good luck to him.

 

[meeesh]

I thought he’d left about 6 months ago

 

[TFC]

Wish him all the best and thanks for the (good ;) memories

Crazy - club captain asking to leave mid season

Somewhat, but it's not uncommon for an older player to feel like a horrible burden to the rest of the team when they realise they're past it

That plus the fact I imagine a team's been in contact with him, makes the whole thing easier

Getting 2 cbs. Prob frees up akanji to play there and one of the new cbs. Makes sense now why we getting 2

Cheers for the many years of top quality service, Kyle

 

[Andouble]

Not to mention he is getting divorced and will be keen to recoup any lost earnings.

 

[Mifred]

Pep just confirmed

 

[Gabriel]

A pity that it ends thus, but I think that going forward the club will now be increasingly wary about extending the contracts of players whose best years are behind them.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has said Kyle Walker is looking at the possibility of moving abroad.

Walker was left out of today’s 8-0 FA Cup third round victory against League Two Salford.

Asked in his post-match press conference for the reasons behind his omission, Guardiola said: “Two days ago Kyle asked to explore the option to play abroad.

“He went to (director of football) Txiki Begiristain. For that reason I prefer to play (players) whose mind is here.”

 

[Ajm1985]

Should have been allowed to leave the first time but he was a great player for those first 5 seasons

 

[MCFCFanTX]

If I'm Pep, I'm furious. Pep has always backed Kyle even with all his off field and tabloid shenanigans. Went out of his way to convince him to stay after the treble (poor decision in hindsight lol).

As a fan I'm not furious but annoyed. How are you a club captain and want to leave in the middle of the season during an injury crisis. So unprofessional.

 

[Pedestrian]

Good for everyone if true.

 

[M Gaudino]

i wonder if this is also news to his wife and/or girlfriend

 

[johnny crossan]

Great news, club captain wants off the ship.

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

Brilliant news. Thanks for a brilliant 4 or 5 years Kyle, but been a liability this last 18 months. Good luck.
