Kyle Walker, a defender representing Manchester City, is approaching his end in the English Premier League (EPL).

England's Football Insider reported on the 15th (Korea time) that Manchester City are reportedly interested in recruiting Jeremy Frimpong as Walker's replacement.

Football Insider said 'Walker has emerged as a replacement due to his recent decline in performance. He has emerged as a problem for Manchester City with his below-expectations performance, and the club are now planning to improve that position in the transfer window. Walker has now been ordered out of the Etihad Stadium, and the club's staff have also reportedly expressed concern over his sudden decline.




The Guardian also said that Walker is one of the most trophy-winning fullbacks in English football history. Now there is a good chance he won't win any more trophies. He was able to succeed through speed. However, the decline has been evident in recent months. Now it's easier than ever for the wingers to beat him, he explained, adding that Walker will now have to leave Manchester City.

Walker played with Son Heung-min at Tottenham before moving to Manchester City in 2017 and becoming the league's best fullback. Walker, once recognized as the fastest player in the English Premier League (EPL), played a key role in Pep Guardiola's tactics. In the 2022-2023 season, he also contributed to winning the European Champions League and was the main player in achieving the Manchester City treble, and played 17 trophies from Manchester City alone and 316 games in total. Since 2023, he has been the team's captain.




However, with Walker's rapid decline this season, the club is already preparing to break up. Walker is often considered Manchester City's weakness in the game. Man City are aggressive in selling. Manchester City is said to be aiming for Leverkusen defender Frimpong, who was also a Manchester City youth in the past, as a substitute for Walker.

Meanwhile, Walker is reportedly considering recruiting a shocking destination if he leaves Manchester City. England's team talk is 'Sheffield United seeking promotion want to negotiate. Walker's contract with Manchester City expires in the summer of 2026, which means that in order for Walker to leave the team, Manchester City may have to actively sell.
