Jose Mourinho has reportedly offered Kyle Walker an escape route from Manchester City, with Fenerbahce trying to sign the England international.
According to Turkish reporter Yagiz Sabuncuoglu, Fenerbahce are actively searching for a new right-back, with Walker emerging as their top priority during this summer’s transfer window.
The Premier League veteran’s potential arrival comes as the club prepare for life without Nigerian full-back Bright Osayi-Samuel, whose contract expires at the end of June.
Fenerbahce have formally submitted an offer to City for the 35-year-old right-back. While the specifics of the bid remain undisclosed, the fact that the club have moved beyond initial interest suggests serious intent.
Sabuncuoglu’s report adds weight to earlier claims from NTV Spor, which revealed that Fenerbahce had initiated talks with the player’s entourage to understand the kind of wages Walker might command.
The club appears willing to go the distance to make the deal happen, considering him as an ideal replacement for Osayi-Samuel and a strong presence to help bolster the club’s defensive unit for the upcoming Super Lig campaign.

Walker’s future at City has looked increasingly uncertain following a season where his playing time drastically declined.
His loan spell at AC Milan during the second half of the 2024-25 season provided a brief change of scenery, but it failed to reignite his form.
With the 2026 World Cup now only a year away, Walker knows time is running out to prove his worth to Thomas Tuchel.
