Kyle Walker-Peters will always have Barcelona. “Whenever people ask me about that, I talk about it as the best and worst experience I had,” says the Southampton full-back, who is in the England squad for the first time, preparing for the friendlies against Switzerland and Ivory Coast.
Walker-Peters was a 21-year-old Tottenham hopeful in December 2018 when he was thrust into the club’s final Champions League group game at the Camp Nou. It did not start well and he was at fault when Ousmane Dembélé opened the scoring in the seventh minute.
