Kyle Walker-Peters

Walker-Peters has agreed on a deal with West Ham United for the 2025/26 season.

Walker-Peters is departing Southampton after five and a half season with the team, the club announced.

Walker-Peters (illness/fitness) is likely to depart the club at the end of his contract and is being limited to give future players minutes, per manager Simon Rusk. "There's a balance with him, he had a nasty illness and it has taken a good bit of getting over. Once we moved past the points record, we're looking at building momentum for next season and naturally, at this time of year, we're looking at one or two of the younger ones around the group and there's a few assessments to be made around that. But what I can tell you is Kyle has been great to work with and has been a great servant to the club."

Walker-Peters (illness) is unavailable for Sunday's match against Everton.

Walker-Peters (illness) is a doubt for Sunday's trip to Everton, per manager Simon Rusk. "Kyle had the illness last week and he hasn't trained much this week, so there'll be a decision to be made,"
