Kyle Walker’s move to Manchester City includes £2.5m add-on for winning Champions League in deal that could cost £89m
Right-back's move to Man City could rise to £50m and match the fee the world-record fee Chelsea paid to re-sign David Luiz
KYLE WALKER'S transfer to Manchester City could net Spurs an extra £2.5million if Pep Guardiola's team win the Champions League.
Spurs yesterday agreed to sell Walker for an initial £45m fee that City sources say could rise to £50m.
The add-ons could accrue in various ways - but will be capped at £5m.
Spurs will receive £1.5m for every time City win the Prem title with Walker in the ranks.
And they will be due an extra £1m for any Europa League win and £0.5m for each time City qualify for the Champions League.
There is every chance that the overall fee could rise to a figure which would match the £50m that Chelsea paid to re-sign David Luiz from Paris Saint-Germain.
But the Walker deal will still fall short of that figure - unless City can bag a load of silverware in the right-back's time with the club.
That would also make him the most expensive English player, with the fee eclipsing the £49m City paid to Liverpool for Raheem Sterling.
Walker is undergoing a medical today ahead of penning a £150,000-a-week five-year deal.
With the £39m that Walker could bank over that period, the total cost of the deal could hit £89m - before player bonuses.
Championship newboys Sheffield United will get a sell-on fee of around £5m, having sold the England international to Spurs in 2009.
City are also confident of landing Benjamin Mendy in the next 24 hours.
Completing moves for Walker and Mendy will come as a big relief to Guardiola.
Having released Gael Clichy, Pablo Zabaleta and Bacary Sagna, the City boss only has Aleksander Kolarov capable of playing at full-back on either flank.
Keeper Joe Hart is also expected to complete a loan move to West Ham.
