England right-back, Kyle Walker @kylewalker2 has extended his contract with Manchester City @mancity until 2026.
The 33-year-old had entered the final year of his existing deal but has now decided to stay in Manchester City. He was linked with a move to Bayern Munich this summer.
In a hilarious video, the full-back mimicked Leonardo DiCaprio in an iconic scene from the movie Wolf of Wall Street. In the video which was posted on the club’s social media pages, Walker was speaking to a room full of his team-mates, he was filmed wearing a suit and tie, just like DiCaprio and says quietly, “I’m not Leaving.”
He looks to the floor, and repeats himself again and then shouted “I’m not leaving”, as his team-mates jump in excitement, singing and chanting at the news. “The show goes on! This is my home!” he added.
Walker, who joined city in 2017 from Tottenham for £45m, has made 39 appearances in all competitions for the club. He has won five Premier League titles, two FA Cups, four League Cups and the Champions League.
“I’m thrilled to sign a new deal. My future is with Manchester City and that is the best thing for me”, said Walker. “I’ve enjoyed every single moment of the past six years at this fantastic club. I have an amazing coach, great team-mates and staff and our fans are the best. I feel supported on every single level.”
