He was a part of Manchester City’s famous treble during the 22/23 season, but which side will be Kyle Walker next club?
However, the problem is that he wasn’t perhaps as big a part of this triumph as he’d have liked. Because of this, you’ll find plenty of information out there at the moment relating to Walker’s next club.
Of course, this means that there are heavy reports, and indeed speculations, that the Manchester City defender is looking for a change in his career.
Speaking of which, my intention today is to show you the teams that are setting their eyes on signing Kyle Walker before the Summer transfer window is over. So let me get started right away.

Kyle Walker next club odds
- Bayern Munich @ 2/3
- Manchester City @ 11/10
- Any Saudi Pro League Club @ 10/1
- Sheffield United @ 25/1
- Aston Villa @ 33/1
Bayern Munich @ 2/3 (1.67) Odds
News of the Kyle Walker Bayern Munich transfer has been circulating for weeks already. And of the five clubs that I’ve listed here as the most likely to sign him, Bayern Munich tops the lot. For starters, over the last week or so there have been reports that Bayern Munich has managed to come to a ‘verbal agreement’ with Walker to join the club. Note that this doesn’t include a transfer fee, which is what is holding up any progression for this move, at the time of writing.
But as we all know, things change very quickly in the transfer markets, so I will be keeping an eye on this one very closely.
Manchester City @ 11/10 (2.10) Odds
Like most of the transfer reports that are being covered this Summer, there’s always a chance that the respective player won’t leave their current club. Because of this, Manchester City comes in as a close second to be Walker’s next club. As you can see, the odds are just slightly lower than what is listed for Bayern Munich right now. And essentially, this is the case since Manchester City and Guardiola have been quite outspoken about the club’s willingness to offer Walker a two-year deal.
However, nothing has been inked regarding that as of now.
Any Saudi Pro League Club @ 10/1 (11.00) Odds
If you look at the moves that have been made for top European players heading to Saudi Arabia this Summer, the numbers have been eye-watering. In fact, Kyle Walker would be the ideal candidate to make such a move too. He fits the bill perfectly, being a player in his 30s who has already achieved pretty much everything at Manchester City. For that reason, there is every possibility that Walker will turn his back on Europe altogether and join the likes of Ronaldo and Benzema in the Saudi Pro League.
Sheffield United @ 25/1 (26.00) Odds
With the odds sitting at 25/1 for Sheffield United to be Walker’s next club, this is a speculative rumor. However, bookmakers don’t tend to list a club inside the top five if there is nothing to give this move substance. And if you look back at Kyle Walker’s professional career, you’ll see that he started as a Sheffield United man. Additionally, this is where he is from, so it’s not out of the question that he may want to enjoy his remaining years as a professional by giving back to his original team.
Aston Villa @ 33/1 (34.00) Odds
In terms of Walker’s connection with Aston Villa in the past, it isn’t exactly huge. Sure, he spent one season on loan there in 2011, yet he hasn’t had much to do with the club since. So what makes Aston Villa a likely candidate to be Kyle Walker’s next club? Well, this comes from Villa’s former player, Alan Hutton, stating publicly that Villa would welcome Kyle Walker back to the club.
Furthermore, he would slot into the defensive lineup well. However, Aston Villa only just made the cut for the Europa Conference League qualifiers this season, so this would be a downgrade for Walker, in all honesty.
