Tottenham Hotspur have decided to sell Kyle Walker in the summer transfer window, according to The Mirror.

It has been reported that Tottenham will demand as much as £40 million in order to part company with the England international defender.

Chelsea, Manchester City and Bayern Munich all are claimed to be interested in signing the right-back in the summer.

“After talks between Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino and chairman Daniel Levy, Walker will be allowed to leave White Hart Lane this summer,” adds the report in The Mirror.

Good decision?

Walker is one of the best right-backs in the Premier League and is a key figure in the current Tottenham squad.

Losing the 26-year-old right-back would be a blow for Tottenham, but the North London outfit could use the £40m they (reportedly) hope to get from the sale to sign a suitable replacement.

Kieran Trippier is a good right-back and could step up in the absence of Walker, but Spurs would still need to sign an establish player for the position.

Tottenham are set to finish second in the Premier League this season and will feature in the group stage of the Champions League during the 2017-18 campaign.
