There haven’t been any real developments of note regarding Walker’s situation, though he was left out of the City squad for their draw against Brentford.

Ruben Amorim confident that Alejandro Garnacho can have bright Man Utd future
While Garnacho is said to be Napoli’s top target in their hunt for a new winger, Ruben Amorim has said it is “clear” Alejandro Garnacho can have a bright future at Manchester United.
Sunday’s FA Cup match at Arsenal, which United went on to win in a penalty shoot-out, was the first time Garnacho had made Amorim’s starting XI since the 3-2 home defeat to Nottingham Forest on December 7.
During that time the 20-year-old, who has eight goals in 30 appearances this term, had been left out of the squad entirely for the Manchester derby, while speculation has increased that United could be open to selling the academy product to help ease concerns around profit and sustainability rules.
