Everton eyeing move for Kyle Walker | OneFootball

Everton are interested in landing Manchester City right-back Kyle Walker, according to The Telegraph.

Walker joined Manchester City in 2017 for £45 million and has since been an integral part of their defence, contributing to multiple Premier League titles and a UEFA Champions League victory.

Despite his achievements, Walker’s role has diminished in recent seasons, leading to a loan move to AC Milan in January 2025. However, Milan chose not to make the move permanent, and Walker is now exploring his options for the upcoming season.

The England international is currently on the fringes at Manchester City and is expected to leave the Etihad Stadium this summer with one year remaining on his existing deal.

Fenerbahce recently tabled an offer to land Walker, and the Turkish Super Lig outfit are now set to face some competition from Everton.

Everton, under the management of David Moyes, are looking to strengthen their squad, particularly in defensive positions. With Walker’s wealth of experience, he could prove to be a shrewd addition to the Everton backline.

His versatility, capable of playing both right-back and centre-back, also makes him a valuable asset for David Moyes as he looks to shore up his defensive options.

Everton finished 13th in the Premier League last season and will be keen to push on next season when they move to their new venue.

Reports suggest that discussions are ongoing with Walker’s representatives, although the Toffees are yet to make a formal approach to Man City.

Walker left English football for the first time in his career back in January, but the 35-year-old could favour remaining in his home country for the latter stages of what has been an undoubtedly illustrious career.
