Football rumours: Manchester City willing to let Kyle Walker leave
What the papers say
England defender Kyle Walker could leave Manchester City at the end of the season. The Daily Star reports City are willing to sell their 34-year-old captain for about £15million with Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli keen on the full-back.
Argentinian winger Julian Fernandez would like a move to Liverpool, according to the Daily Express. The 20-year-old is at New York City, part of the City Football Group which also owns Manchester City.
Thomas Tuchel may have barely been unveiled as the new England manager, but speculation is already under way about future successors. The Guardian reports that Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta, now 42, would be open to taking the job.
