Kyle Walker Thrilled to Sign with AC Milan
Kyle Walker has expressed his excitement about joining AC Milan, describing it as an honor to sign for a club he has admired since his youth. The England international defender recently completed a loan move from Manchester City to the Italian giants.
In his first statement as a Milan player, Walker shared: “I’m thrilled and honored to become part of AC Milan. This club has such a rich heritage, and I’ve been a fan since I was young. It’s a privilege to join, and I’m eager to put on the Rossoneri jersey and get started.”
Walker continued, “I’m looking forward to this new phase in my career and beginning this journey with my family in Italy. I want to express my deep gratitude to everyone who has supported me both on and off the pitch. See you soon!”
The 33-year-old right-back is Milan’s first acquisition of the January transfer window and the inaugural signing under new head coach Sergio Conceicao. Walker joins a squad that already includes several right-backs, though injuries and contract situations may provide him with ample playing time.
While international clearance may delay his debut, there’s a possibility Walker could make his first Serie A appearance in the upcoming Milan derby against Inter. This high-profile match would certainly be a memorable way for the Englishman to begin his Italian football adventure.
As Walker embarks on this new chapter, Milan fans will be eager to see how the experienced defender adapts to Serie A and contributes to the team’s ambitions for the remainder of the season.
