Kyle Walker joins Burnley in £5m dealRight-back leaves the Etihad after seven-and-a-half-years with the club
Kyle Walker has joined Burnley for £5m, and has signed a two-year deal with the Clarets.
The 35-year-old made 319 appearances for the Blues after joining from Spurs in 2017, winning 15 trophies in his seven-and-a-half years with the club.
Walker spent the second half of last season on loan at AC Milan, but the Italian side decided against making the deal permanent.
The defnder said an emotional goodbye to City fans in a lengthy Instagram video post:
"I feel what we have achieved as a team, a club, and organisation, a family, that's not just obviously the players and the staff but you as fans have been absolutely incredible.
"The ups, the downs, the good times, the bad times, the treble, the centurions, the formidables, the four-in-a-row. You name it, we've kind of done it and I feel that I wanted to say thank you to each and everyone associated with Manchester City.
"From Khaldoon, to Txiki and obviously the manager, you've truly left a special place in my heart forever and I will be fully in debt, grateful for what you made me not just experience, but my family and the good times we shared on the pitch and off the pitch, and especially when we won trophies I always enjoyed.
"I just wanted to say thank you to the lads, the group of players that I've been with past and present, it's been an absolute honour. Been very very fortunate to play with some legends of the game but there is still top top legends there at the club, top players at the club and I believe that you can carry on keep achieving what we've achieved over the last number of years. it's kind of not a farewell but a see you soon.
"Thank you once again to the fans, thank you to everyone who was associated with it from 2017 to this present day. My chapter is moving somewhere different. It's a little bit of a different challenge but one I'm really looking forward to and, you know, attacking really."
