Burnley man presented with special shirt to mark 96-cap England career

Kyle Walker presented with special 96 England shirt

Burnley’s Kyle Walker was presented with a special shirt to recognise his 96 caps for England.

The FA made the presentation at half-time during Friday night’s Nations League game between the Three Lions and Spain at Wembley.

It comes after the 36-year-old announced his international retirement in March, after being left out of successive squads in the lead up to this summer’s World Cup.

Walker enjoyed a 14-year career with England, representing his country at five major tournaments. The former Manchester City man started two final for the Three Lions, the delayed Euro 2021, which England lost to Italy on penalties, plus the 2-1 defeat to Spain at Euro 2024.

“A special moment to be presented with this shirt to mark my 96 caps for England,” Walker wrote on his Instagram page.

“It's been a huge honour to represent my country and I am proud of every cap. A big thank you to the FA, England and to everyone who was a part of my journey.”

Elsewhere on the international front, Burnley’s Zeki Amdouni continued his strong start to the season with a brace in Switzerland’s 3-0 win over North Macedonia.

The 25-year-old now has four goals for club and country this season as he returns to regular action following his lengthy absence with an ACL injury.

The Swiss take on Scotland in their second Nations League game on Tuesday night, before taking on Slovenia and North Macedonia again.

Academy player Blayz Borgesson, meanwhile, made his senior debut for Bermuda as they went down to a 2-1 defeat to Guadeloupe.
