In a recent interview with GQ, Kyle Walker expressed his excitement about his move from Manchester City to AC Milan, stating that it has given him “a new lease of life.” The English international joined Milan on loan until the end of the season after enduring a difficult time with City in the Premier League.
Since making the move to Italy, Walker has already featured in four matches for Milan and is thoroughly enjoying the adventure of playing abroad. He praised the fans and the food in Milan, although he did mention that the weather could be better. However, he remains optimistic and is eagerly waiting for March when he hopes the sun will come out.
Walker also took to Twitter to express his delight and pride in signing for AC Milan. He described the club as having a rich history, one that he has followed since he was a kid. He can’t wait to don the Rossoneri shirt and start playing for the team.
The 34-year-old defender believes that his move to Milan has allowed him to solely concentrate on football and fall back in love with the game. While he never fell out of love with football, playing in the Premier League against the same players after winning everything had taken its toll. This move to Italy has re-energized his passion for the sport.
Walker is expected to feature for Milan once again when they face Hellas Verona in Serie A on Saturday. Milan has an impressive record against Verona, having won their last eight matches against them. In fact, this winning streak is one of the longest consecutive winning streaks Milan has achieved against any opponent in their history in the competition.
Overall, Walker’s move to AC Milan has rejuvenated his career and allowed him to rediscover his love for the game. Fans are excited to see what he can bring to the team and how he will contribute to their success in Serie A.
