Pep Guardiola confirmed that Kyle Walker had requested to leave Manchester City at the beginning of the 2023/24 season following interest from Bayern Munich. However, Walker was convinced to stay and signed a new contract until 2026. Guardiola mentioned the importance of Walker to the team's success.

Team Talk reports on Bayern Munich's interest in Kyle Walker and their potential plans for a transfer. Bayern Munich made a move for Walker back in the summer of 2023 but were unable to agree on terms. Bayern have been using midfielder Joshua Kimmich at right-back due to issues with other players and could revisit their interest in Walker.

Kyle Walker has requested to explore options to end his career playing abroad. Guardiola mentioned that Walker asked two days ago to explore these options. Bayern Munich showed firm interest two summers ago in Kyle Walker.

Walker could be moved on, having been close to an exit in 2023, linked with one this summer, and struggling on the pitch.
