Here we go! Manchester City captain joins Premier League team with a transfer fee of up to 5 million pounds

On July 5, well-known transfer reporter Romano used the iconic "here we go!" to officially announce the news that Manchester City captain Kyle Walker joined the Premier League promoted team Burnley. He said Burnley signed Walker to reach an agreement with Manchester City. If Walker's attendance rate reaches 70% and helps the team relegate, Manchester City can get a transfer fee of up to £5 million. Walker will sign with Burnley for two years and has undergone the first part of the medical examination. At the same time, The Athletic also synchronized the news, and Kyle Walker's joining Burnley became a fact.

Kyle Walker joined Manchester City in 2017, playing for the team in 319 games, scoring 6 goals and assisting 23 times. During this period, he helped Manchester City win 1 Champions League trophy, 6 Premier League trophys, 2 FA Cup championships, 4 League Cup championships, 1 UEFA Super Cup championship and 1 Club World Cup championship. Last season, Walker was criticized by Manchester City fans for his poor performance. During the winter window transfer, Walker was loaned to AC Milan, and played in 16 games for the team, including 11 starts without goals or assists. After the season, AC Milan finally decided not to buy him out.

Burnley was the second second in the Championship last season and was also a Premier League promoted team in the 25-26 season. Burnley's current coach Scott Parker played with Kyle Walker from 2011 to 2013. Scott Parker trusted and appreciated Walker's ability very much. Walker's joining will greatly increase Burnley's Premier League experience in the defense. Burnley's last Premier League match (23-24 season) was due to the lack of experienced veterans in the team, which eventually led to a relegation to the English Championship.

For Manchester City, they will usher in a major purge this summer. In addition to Kyle Walker joining Burnley, De Bruyne joins Serie A champion Napoli without a sign-off. Gallish lost to the Club World Cup roster and also faced the risk of being cleaned up in the summer window. In addition, McCarty, Gundogan and Ortega face uncertainty in the future of the team.
