In this round of Premier League, Walker played away against Manchester City with Burnley. Manchester Evening News reported that Walker was warmly welcomed by Manchester City players and fans when he returned to the Etihad Stadium. Before the game, he received encouragement from Ruben Dias and hugged Foden, and Haaland even gave him a big bear hug. Walker also applauded the fans of the court, while Manchester City fans shouted "Only one Kyle Walker" to respond to him.
Manchester City coach Guardiola urged fans to welcome Walker before the game and highly praised him. Guardiola called Walker "one of the greatest full-backs in history" and said, "With Kyle on the court, I slept as safe as a baby."
He emphasized that Walker has always been an important figure in the locker room for eight years and has been the right-back who defined the team's era for the past nine years, and deserves the thanks from fans.
