Pep Guardiola responds to Kyle Walker allegations and sends reminder to Man City players

Manchester City have spoken to Kyle Walker after he was accused of indecent exposure in a bar this week. Walker is being investigated by Cheshire Police over allegations he indecently exposed himself in a Wilmslow bar.

The alleged incident is said to have happened on Sunday after City's 2-0 Premier League win over Newcastle. A national newspaper released security camera footage from the bar on Wednesday – and Cheshire Police are now investigating the matter.

City travel to Crystal Palace on Saturday, and Walker will be available for selection, but Pep Guardiola said the club will deal with the matter internally.

"It’s a private issue, we solve it internally and we are speaking with him," Guardiola said on Friday in his pre-match press conference. "This is not the place to talk about private situations."

Asked whether players with a level of fame should be extra cautious in their private life, Guardiola said: "Definitely, it's completely different to years ago.

"[The players] know it already, when you open the door at home, you have to know you will be filmed whatever you do, it’s part of society."

The PA news agency understands Walker contests the allegations and reported for training as normal after the two-day break. Walker’s representatives have been approached for comment.
