The club condemned the abuse, labeling it “disgusting” and reaffirming their commitment to fully support Walker.
Walker shared one of the racist messages on his Instagram Stories, stating, “Instagram and the authorities must take action to prevent this from happening to anyone else. Such behavior is never acceptable.”
The England team’s account on the social media platform X expressed their disappointment, saying, “We are deeply saddened that Kyle has experienced such reprehensible abuse online. Discrimination in any form is entirely unacceptable. We advocate for decisive action from both authorities and social media companies.”
Following the 2-0 loss to Juventus, City has struggled, winning only one of their last ten matches across all competitions, a surprising downturn for the reigning champions of the Premier League. This defeat in Turin has put City at risk of being eliminated from the Champions League.
Walker addressed the fans, stating, “We will continue to work as a team to improve and turn things around together.”
