Manchester City players expect Tottenham fullback Kyle Walker to soon be signed.

The Mirror says the Sheffield-born defender is keen to return to the north, which gives City the edge over Chelsea and Bayern Munich.

Tottenham will demand around £50m for Walker as they prepare to sell this summer as he has fallen out of favour.

The 26-year-old - who knows he could treble his money at City - lost his place in some games to Kieran Trippier after his form dipped at the end of the season.
