Report: Walker to leave Spurs as row with Pochettino remains unresolved
Tottenham full-back Kyle Walker has decided his footballing future lies away from the north London club due to an ongoing dispute with manager Mauricio Pochettino, reports Jack Pitt-Brooke of the Independent.
Walker is looking to leave the club this summer as Pochettino starts Kieran Trippier in rotation at right-back. Walker was left out of Spurs' starting XI for a derby match against Arsenal, with Pochettino reportedly questioning Walker's fitness and ability to play two matches in a week.
The 26-year-old was also left out for all three of Spurs' away matches in the Champions League this season.
Pitt-Brooke reports Walker has interest from a number of big teams including Manchester United, Manchester City, and Barcelona, with the club considering a price tag of £35 million to £50 million. However, Walker has not yet handed in a transfer request.
