Kyle Walker opens up on groin injury and Man City motivation

Manchester City and England right-back Kyle Walker has opened up on the groin injury that put his World Cup at risk, as well as the life experiences that help keep him motivated.

Walker has been a regular starter for both City and England for a number of years now, but when he suffered a groin injury in early October that required surgery, his place in Gareth Southgate's World Cup squad looked uncertain.

However, despite not playing since City's 6-3 defeat of Manchester United October 2, Walker travelled to Qatar. After missing England's opening game win against Iran, he is available for selection for the match against the United States on Friday.
