Lining up for England in the European Championship final last summer, few would have imagined Kyle Walker ending the season with no clue where he will be at the start of the next one.
Sure, the life of a footballer is filled with twists, turns, setbacks and hurdles and Walker has had plenty of those, but above all he was an elite defender - arguably the greatest full back these shores have ever seen.
Often unfairly maligned as a 'pace merchant', Walker has dominated the right-hand side of every single Premier League ground for over a decade with Tottenham and Manchester City.
