Why Lauryn Goodman's become a laughing stock in Kyle Walker and Annie Kilner's camp. Friends tell me of 'total wind-up merchant' move that's backfired... and she 'has form': KATIE HIND

Kyle Walker and his wife Annie Kilner have been dreaming of an escape route from what they describe as their 'nightmare' for some time now. With their marriage in tatters after the embattled footballer's former mistress Lauryn Goodman revealed her second baby was also his, it will come as little surprise to most that Annie would just love to transport herself somewhere else – anywhere, in fact.

Now it has emerged that the family will be relocating. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola sensationally revealed on Saturday afternoon that his 34-year-old star defender and captain has asked for permission to discuss moving abroad before the next transfer window shuts at the end of the month.

Explaining why he had dropped him from the Premier League giants' FA Cup clash with Salford on Saturday, Pep, who has been staunchly loyal to Kyle despite his colourful off-pitch activity, said: 'Two days ago, Kyle asked to explore the options to play abroad,' explaining that the star had approached Txiki Begiristain – Manchester City's director of football – to put in the request.
'For that reason I prefer to play [a player] whose mind is here. But he has said he wants to explore in his mind and his heart... Honestly? I don't know what is going to happen.'. One person who appears to have known is Lauryn, 33, because just a few hours after Pep's outburst a story appeared in The Sun on Sunday, the red-top tabloid where she has close connections, to say she was planning to quit Britain too, with her sights set on Dubai.
