AC Milan is very close to finalizing one of the most remarkable signings of this transfer window: Kyle Walker, the experienced right-back from Manchester City, could become the new Rossoneri player in the next few hours. The English footballer has reportedly given his approval for the deal, which would pave the way to sign a contract until June 2027.

In Milan, negotiations with Walker and his representatives are at an advanced stage. For days now, the player has shown interest in joining the team led by Sérgio Conceição, who aims to strengthen their defense with the arrival of the full-back. The deal also involves terminating Walker's contract with City, a necessary step to complete the operation.

Kyle Walker, a castoff from Manchester City

Walker, 33, has played 18 games this season, although his role at Manchester City has diminished. This situation, coupled with the English club's need to make room for young talents like Abdukodir Khusanov and Vitor Reis, both close to being signed, has facilitated his departure.

At AC Milan, Walker's arrival would be crucial to expand defensive options and bring experience to a team aspiring to establish itself as one of the best in Europe. With a physical and tactical profile proven in the Premier League and international competitions, the Englishman would fit perfectly into the Italian club's playing philosophy.

Everything indicates that the official announcement could be a matter of hours away. If completed, Walker would provide not only defensive solidity but also leadership to a Milan side looking to return to the pinnacle both in Serie A and in Europe.
