Details: Following his divorce from Annie Kilner, Kyle Walker has been contemplating a move away from Manchester. He had agreed in principle to join Bayern Munich and even reached a verbal agreement on terms. However, he ultimately decided against the transfer, prioritizing being close to his children.

Now, Walker has another option on the table. According to *The Sun*, Al-Ahli has expressed interest in signing Kyle Walker and is prepared to buy out his contract for £20 million. Although his current deal with Manchester City runs until 2026, the defender is considering a move as early as next summer. While Walker is open to leaving Manchester City, he would be happy to remain at the club as well.

Should Walker make the switch to Al-Ahli, he would become the club’s fifth high-profile signing, joining the ranks of Ivan Toney, Riyad Mahrez, Roberto Firmino, and Édouard Mendy.
