Kyle Walker has put pen to paper on a new deal at Manchester City. The deal runs until the end of the 2026 season. Walker joined City in 2017 and has gone on to win five Premier League titles, two FA Cups, four League Cups, two Community Shields, the UEFA Champions League and the European Super Cup. Walker’s previous deal was set to expire at the end of the 2024 season.
Kyle Walker has signed a two-year contract extension at Manchester City, the Premier League champions have announced.
“Kyle Walker has signed a new Manchester City contract, keeping him at the club until the summer of 2026,” read a statement on the club’s website.
Walker had been linked with a move away from the club over the summer – with Bayern Munich said to be interested in the player – but he has now committed his future to the club for a further two years.
His previous deal was set to expire at the end of the 2024 season.
“I’m thrilled to sign a new deal," Walker said. "My future is with Manchester City and that is the best thing for me.
“I’ve enjoyed every single moment of the past six years at this fantastic club. I have an amazing coach, great team-mates and staff and our fans are the best. I feel supported on every single level.
“The Treble-winning season is one I will never forget and we’re ready to go again and try to win more trophies. I am delighted to continue at a club that competes for trophies every year and I can’t wait to see what the next few years bring.”
Walker has won five Premier League titles, two FA Cups, four League Cups, two Community Shields, the UEFA Champions League and the European Super Cup since moving to the Etihad from Tottenham in 2017.
“We are very happy that Kyle will be here until 2026,” said director of football Txiki Begiristain. “He is an outstanding footballer and his speed, strength and experience make him such an important member of our squad.
“For me, he is the best right-back in the world, a player with a unique set of attributes. He brings a very special dynamic to our team.
“Kyle has been a huge part of our recent success, and we are confident that he will help us compete for trophies in the upcoming seasons.”
