http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kyle-Walker-c21566, the 21-year-old Tottenham Hotspur defender, revealed he was happy at White Hart Lane and did not want to leave despite being linked with various clubs.
The likes of Real Madrid, AC Milan and Juventus are reportedly interested in acquiring the signature of the young right back after his superb performance for the Spurs. However, Walker who signed a contract extension this summer insisted he did not want
to leave the London club.
His extended contract goes up to 2016 and Walker intends to honour it, and said he planned on not getting carried away by success. He confessed he had not even considered the possibility of leaving Tottenham Hotspur and was perfectly happy at the club.
Walker said while speaking to reporters:
“It's not even open to debate. I owe a debt of gratitude to the club and the manager, Harry Redknapp, and I couldn't be happier or more grateful.
Besides I am not going to get carried away and I have a good group of people, including my agent, family and friends, who ensure I keep my feet firmly on the ground.”
According to the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 international he felt he was still learning, which is why he did not let himself get carried away. He revealed he liked to stay back after training and study DVD of his matches to learn and better himself for the future.
He was also especially grateful for the opportunity to learn from players like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ledley-King-c21859, two of the top Premier League defenders. He said it was an advantage for him to play in a team like the Spurs where he had a certain freedom to
go forward.
In addition to that, Walker also faces tough opposition in the form of highly experiences strikers, which was a huge blessing for the youngster.
Walker continued:
“The only advantage I have is that I started out life as a striker, so sometimes that gives me a slight advantage because it enables me to second guess what they might do.”
