Tottenham Hotspur defender Kyle Walker has been linked with a move to Premier League rivals Manchester City in the summer transfer window.
According to The London Evening Standard, City are interested in signing the England international right-back and are willing to double Walker’s weekly salary of £70,000.
Former Spurs manager Harry Redknapp has given his take on the 26-year-old’s situation at the moment.
“Kyle Walker’s future looks uncertain,” Redknapp wrote in The London Evening Standard. “He is one of the best right-backs in the league but only — and I know it’s ‘only’ in the crazy world of football — earning £70,000 a week.
“Manchester City could do with him, they’ve been playing Jesus Navas at right-back in a few matches lately, and they’ll offer £150,000 a week without a problem.”
Should Kyle Walker leave Tottenham Hotspur for Manchester City?
Tottenham have progressed massively under manager Mauricio Pochettino over the past three or so seasons and could win the Premier League title this season.
City are a big club as well, but the Citizens may not end up in the top four of the league title this campaign.
Walker is one of the best right-backs in the Premier League, and working under Pep Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium is only going to make him a better player.
The 26-year-old has created 39 chances in 31 Premier League appearances for Tottenham so far this season.
