Fans stunned after finding out how much Man City want for Kyle Walker as transfer mooted

Manchester City are reportedly willing to offload captain Kyle Walker in the summer, with a low asking price rumoured.

After coming close to leaving for Bayern Munich at the end of the treble-winning campaign in 2023, Walker was appointed City's captain and signed a new two-year contract extension.

He is not expected to be receive a new deal at the Etihad Stadium and no talks between player and club are planned.

And according to the Daily Star, the six-time Premier League winner is a top target for Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli.

Al Ahli pulled off a huge transfer for Walker's compatriot Ivan Toney in the summer, paying around £40 million to snap him up from Brentford.

Toney became one of the highest-paid English players in the world and is now said to net around £400,000-a-week.

Walker would be in line to earn a similar wage, nearly doubling his current pay packet.

The 34-year-old would also be reunited with former City teammate Riyad Mahrez on the right flank and share a dressing room with the likes of Roberto Firmino, Edouard Mendy and Franck Kessie.

And as per the report, City would be willing to entertain offers of around £15 million for Walker - who they bought for £50 million from Spurs in 2017.

The right-back has suffered a loss of form in recent times and was at fault for both of Arsenal's goals in the 2-2 draw in September.

One of the fastest players in Premier League history, Walker was also left in the dust by Adama Traore in a foot-race during the win over Fulham.

He was left out of Lee Carsley's first England squad before earning a recall for games against Greece and Finland in the last international break.

Walker has expressed interest in finishing his career with boyhood club Sheffield United but a mammoth Saudi payday may be too hard to turn down.
