Man City’s Walker signs two-year contract extension

Manchester City defender Kyle Walker signed a two-year contract extension with the treble winners on Thursday.

Walker agreed the new deal just weeks after his future with Pep Guardiola’s side was in doubt amid links to Bayern Munich.

The 33-year-old was out of favour for a period of last season and was dropped from the starting line-up for City’s Champions League final victory over Inter Milan in June.

Walker was in the final year of his existing deal with City, but the Premier League champions kept the right-back at the transfer deadline and have persuaded him to extend his stay in Manchester.
