Kyle Walker ‘throws leaving party after talks to move to Italy with wife Annie Kilner’

-

Footballer Kyle Walker reportedly held a ‘leaving party’ for friends over the weekend ahead of a potential move abroad.

It’s thought that Kyle, 34, could leave Manchester City after eight years with the Premier League club. Manager Pep Guardiola, 53, announced just days ago that he’s expressed his desire to leave during this month’s transfer window.

There is said to have been interest from AC Milan and Inter Milan has also been mentioned as part of speculation, with both clubs located in Italy. Kyle is also said to have been weighing up a potential deal to play in Saudi Arabia.

Ahead of a potential departure from Manchester City, the Daily Mail reports that Kyle held a ‘leaving party’ for friends over the weekend. It said that the footballer’s party for “close friends” took place at an undisclosed location.

The outlet adds that it understand any loan agreement with either of the clubs in Milan could turn into a two-year permanent deal at its conclusion. It adds that sources have said that Kyle is “determined” to win 100 caps for England, with the vice-captain currently on 93 for the national team.

Manchester City manager Pep spoke about Kyle’s potential departure from the club after the player’s absence from Saturday’s match against Salford City. As previously reported, Pep said: “It’s not easy for me to say but Kyle is not here because two days ago he asked to explore the option to play abroad. […] Kyle asked to explore. It doesn’t mean it’s going to happen, you never know. I respect him a lot because I’m more than grateful. He has been here many years for us.”

It’s been suggested that Kyle’s wife Annie Kilner, 32 – who has reportedly been considering divorcing him – will join him if he relocates abroad for his career. Speaking to the Sun, a source said: “They’re hopeful a switch to Italy will give them the breathing space they desperately need to see if things can be worked out. It’s been impossible to do that in England due to the pressure they’ve been under for the last 12 months.”

The Mirror revealed last week that Kyle and Annie, who have four children together, are looking ahead to a potential new chapter together. A source told us: “Any suggestion that Annie is staying with Kyle for financial benefit is absolute nonsense and pure speculation. The couple are still navigating their relationship behind the scenes but will always come together to be there for their children who they both absolutely adore. They enjoyed a family Christmas together and are looking ahead to the new year to see what may be on the horizon.”

It comes after Kyle and Annie put on a united front amid celebrating the festive period together as a family. Weeks prior, it was reported that Annie had filed for divorce in October, though that’s said to have since been paused.

Kyle and Annie’s relationship has faced scandal in recent years over him having fathered two kids with Lauryn Goodman, 33. Kyle has fathered children Kairo, four, and Kinara, one, with the former Celebs Go Dating participant.

Following the news that Kyle had fathered a second child with Lauryn, it was announced last year that Annie was taking “some time away” from him, but they were later thought to have reconciled. It was reported in September that he had moved back into the family home but that there was still “work to be done” in their marriage, prior to the divorce rumours.
