Kyle Walker has revealed that he had to stop tears when he left Manchester City in January.
Walker, 34, brought his stay of seven and a half years in the city at the start of the year in an end when he completed a loan movement to AC Milan.
His decision to move to Italy came in the midst of the Family Drama of the Field, where Walker Vecht for his marriage to the mother of four of his children, Annie Kilner, after he also fought two children with his influencer ex-district Lauryn Goodman.
The six-time Premier League winner is now open on how difficult the call was to continue from City for a new challenge abroad.
Speaking on BBC Sounds 'The Kyle Walker Podcast, explained the entire back:' I told the team manager … the player Liaison Officer, I said I wanted to say goodbye to the boys in the canteen before I left when I knew the deal was complete.
“And he actually texted the entire building! So there were 150 people there and I had to say goodbye, which was a bit nerve -racking, and it was sad because so many people had this persona about me or whatever, I spoke to everyone in that building of the cleaners, to the chefs, to the kit men, against the physios.
“There was the lady there, Emma, who would be behind the counter and serve your food, whether you would get drinks and whatever, and even when I looked at her, I wanted to cry because it was as if I said every day: 'Morning' to you and you have given a hug, and you will not see anymore, and you don't think anymore.”
Walker was previously associated with potential movements to Saudi Aarabia and Bayern Munich, to finally stay in the city.
However, he admitted that Milan's temptation was different and admitted that Pep Guardiola was not trying to convince him to hang around after he had informed the city boss that he believed that the time was ripe to continue.
“In football I think when certain things come, or certain opportunities come, you have to take it,” Walker said.
'And for me to experience a different competition, for me to experience a different culture, for me to play for a club like AC Milan … I don't think you can reject that.
'And if you know they want you, or you want to go there, and you want a new challenge, I think there are certain clubs in the world that can say a little no.
'I think he (PEP) is a top player, play for a top club and manage these top players, [he knows] People will have different desires or ambitions to do certain things with their career, and I just think it just came for me at the right time. It came at the right time. It was the right club.
'And I just felt, you know what, I have to go and try something else because I don't want to live after football and said that I wanted me to have explored something otherwise and came to a club like this. I think it was suitable for me. '
Walker had an eventful start of life in Milan, reportedly made his wife upset when he started partying with two Serbian models last month.
The couple reunited himself at their house in Cheshire shortly after Walker's Night of Party, and the defender was surprisingly good.
Walker also made a big impression on the field, with 11 games for the Italian giants in his first two months.
Walker was previously held the bracelet of the captain in City and is never anyone who held his tongue, and he was heard when delivering a brutal message to teammate Joao Felix when they came forward for the second half of the 2-1 defeat of Milan by Napoli on Sunday.
Walker told the Portuguese star “Pass the ball, we're not a messi!” But the message seemed to fall on deaf ears, because Felix was replaced only 10 minutes later.
The 95-cap England International still has a chance to secure silverware this season, with Milan to the semi-final of the Coppa Italia.
They played the first stage of their last four draw with Arch-Rivalen Inter on Wednesday-where Walker completed the full 90 minutes and the game ended 1-1 after Hakan Calhanoglu had canceled the opener of Tammy Abraham.
