Kyle Walker eyed by Saudi moneybags and could line up alongside FOUR ex-Premier League stars
KYLE WALKER is the latest high-profile name on the Saudi wish list — and may line up alongside Ivan Toney next season.
Al-Ahli have made the Manchester City skipper their leading target, after bagging Toney with a £40million deal in August.
England striker Toney had only a year to go on his Bees contract and City would demand around £20m, although Walker’s deal has two years to run.
But that will not deter the Saudi big-spenders, who already have one ex-Etihad star on the books in Riyad Mahrez.
Al-Ahli also have ex-Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy and Liverpool legend Roberto Firmino in their squad.
And the emergence of Rico Lewis at City means the Prem champions are likely to play ball should Walker, 34, decide he wants a new challenge.
England defender Walker joined City from Tottenham in the summer of 2017 and has been a key player in Pep Guardiola’s glittering Etihad reign.
He has won six Premier League titles, the Champions League as part of the Treble in 2023, two FA Cups and four EFL Cups.
Walker has 91 England caps but a move to Saudi would cast a doubt over his international future.
Toney has not played for the Three Lions since his switch to the Middle East.

Meanwhile, crocked striker Oscar Bobb is on course to return ahead of schedule.
Bobb, 21, broke a bone in a leg in a freak pre-season clash and was initially ruled out until the turn of the year.
But the Norwegian hopes to start light training in early December.
