During the previous summer transfer window, Kyle Walker was very close to a transfer to Bayern Munich, but he decided otherwise.
Arriving on the banks of Irwell in 2017, Manchester City right-back Kyle Walker could well have joined the ranks of Bayern Munich this summer.
“I was very close to moving”
The England international, involved in an extra-sporting affair linked to adultery, revealed that he was considering this transfer to escape British media pressure. “I wanted to go to Bayern Munich because of the English press, I knew what was going to happen, so I wanted to escape to Germany,” the Sheffield native confided for The Sun.
Despite his hesitations, the 33-year-old finally decided to continue his adventure with the Cityzens, emphasizing his attachment to what he considers to be the best team in the world. “Did I want to leave?” No, of course not, I’m in the best team in the world,” judged the former Spurs member.
According to him, a change would probably have complicated his personal situation further. “I was very close to moving,” Walker said. I was going to a big club, a huge club. But in the end, if it’s to go to Germany and find myself alone… There is pain and emotion at the moment but I can go home, take the children to school. »
