Kyle Walker Ends 8-Year Spell with Man City by Moving to Burnley
- Kyle Walker, a 35-year-old England international and former Manchester City captain, signed a two-year deal with Premier League club Burnley on July 5, 2025.
- Walker lost his place in the Manchester City squad under Pep Guardiola during the last season, spent the second half of 2024/25 on loan with AC Milan, and returned to City ahead of the current summer transfer period.
- Burnley, promoted after finishing second in the Championship last season, welcomed Walker to reunite him with manager Scott Parker, his former Tottenham teammate between 2011 and 2013.
- The transfer fee is reported as £5 million with possible add-ons; Walker has played 410 Premier League matches and won six league titles plus the Champions League with City.
- This move ends Walker's eight-year spell at City, providing Burnley with an experienced defender while allowing City to trim their squad and reduce wage costs.
