Pep Guardiola left ‘disappointed’ in Kyle Walker as star ‘bypasses Man City boss to secure AC Milan transfer’ PEP Guardiola was left "disappointed" with Kyle Walker after he went to Manchester City chiefs to push for an exit this January.
After City smashed Salford 8-0 in the FA cup on January 11, Guardiola told media that captain Walker had "asked to leave the club".
Walker admitted during his Milan unveiling that he felt "very uncomfortable" telling Guardiola he wanted to quit City.
Walker, whose Milan deal includes an option to buy, approached City director of football Txiki Begiristain to push through a move.
In total, Walker only started nine of City's 23 Premier League matches this term, as 20-year-old Rico Lewis began creeping above him in the pecking order.
