Walker is expected to be joined in Italy by his wife Annie Kilner and their four children once family living accommodation has been arranged. For now, Kilner – who has seen her husband father two kids with ex-Love Island contestant Lauryn Goodman – continues to be based in the UK.
DID YOU KNOW?
She was in attendance for Walker’s Milan debut, in a derby date with Inter, but the 34-year-old was by himself when helping the Serie A giants to a 3-1 victory over Roma in the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia – keeping them on course for more major silverware in 2024-25.
WHAT KYLE WALKER SAID
Walker has posted on Instagram, with another loan star – Chelsea-owned forward Joao Felix – among the goals against Roma: “My first win as a Milan player and we’re through to the semi-finals! Thanks so much for the support today.”
