Walker moved from Tottenham to Manchester City in 2017 and became the league's best fullback. In addition to the right fullback, Walker also played a key role in Pep Guardiola's tactics, serving as a right stopper in the back three tactics. In the 2022-2023 season, he also contributed to winning the European Champions League and was a key player in achieving the Manchester City treble. Since 2023, he has been the team's captain.

Guardiola left Walker out of the list in the third round of the FA Cup last 2024-2025 season against Salford City, and in a post-match press conference "Walker wants to leave for another country now. I want to use a player who has a heart for our team. He said he wanted to explore the mind and mind," he said, announcing Walker's transfer request.
