Walker, who reigned as the league's strongest right-back in his heyday by showing off his overwhelming speed, strong kicks, and solid defensive skills, played with Son Heung-min at Tottenham Hotspur and made friends. Then, he moved to Manchester City ahead of the 2017-2018 season.

The move to Manchester City was a decision that gave Walker a wing in his career. He has achieved 17 wins in seven years at Manchester City, which he did not experience when he was at Tottenham. As a key member of Manchester City, he has established himself as the best right-back in the league. Walker played in a total of 319 games for Manchester City, winning a total of 17 EPL championships, including six EPL championships and one Champions League championship. Manchester City's Treble also holds a big stake in winning the EPL's first four consecutive league titles.

Walker showed signs of aging. In particular, in the 2024-2025 season, Manchester City fans were criticized for poor speed and performance from the beginning. In particular, the fact that he had two children with his mistress was so upset that he could not focus more on soccer due to privacy issues, such as filing for divorce from his wife. Man City have aggressively pushed for the sale of Walker.




There were love calls from various clubs, but Walker chose AC Milan, who offered a two-year contract with a full transfer. Milan will pay most of Walker's weekly salary of 150,000 pounds (about 270 million won) under the contract with Manchester City, and can complete a full transfer for 4 million pounds (about 7.15 billion won) at the end of the loan period.

Walker, who ended his seven-year companionship with Manchester City, said goodbye to Manchester City members through SNS. The first sentence is unusual. "Manchester City…"Where to Start? (Manchester City…)… Where do I start?)," he said, opening his speech with difficulty as if he had mixed feelings.

Walker then said "It was a dream come true to sign with this amazing club in 2017. It was in my childhood dream to win the Champions League and lift a total of 17 trophies in the last seven years, including the great treble"I was able to be at the highest level while I was with a lot of the best players. Thank you for having this opportunity at the Etihad Stadium. In particular, I would like to thank the coaching staff and all the staff who worked tirelessly behind the scenes."

The last person Walker mentioned in his farewell was Pep Guardiola. He considers himself the coach who allowed him to be here. Walker said "To Pep Guardiola. Thank you for trusting me in 2017 and putting a lot of effort into bringing me to Man City. I shared my joy with the director by lifting 17 trophies. The director's guidance made me who I am today. I'll always be grateful"I left a polite thank you to Guardiola for giving me the opportunity to enjoy my best glory as a player.
