Walker’s early 2022–2023 impact was thwarted by a groin injury.
The 32-year-old got a spot in the England team for the 2022 World Cup finals, nonetheless, after a period of recovery.
He went on to start three games at the tournament in Qatar, helping England get to the quarter-finals, where they lost to France.
Walker has been a strong force at right-back in the final months of the 2022–23 season, assisting City in winning the Premier League for the third year in a row.
