    Bentley Bentayga, £200,000
    When the Bentayga was released in 2015, footballers all over the world put their name on the waiting list for one.
    Walker, along with England pal Raheem Sterling, were just two of the first in line.
    The Bentayga was Bentley’s first foray into the SUV market – and it’s a beautiful car.

    Audi RS7, £115,000
    Although he was spoiled with the Bentayga in terms of comfort and class, Walker clearly has a preference for a more sporty motor.
    Recently, he’s been seen driving to training in a stylish RS7 that comes with a hefty £115,000 price tag.
    This Audi can hit a top speed of 190 mph.
    Better still, it does 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds meaning it’s not too shabby at all.

    Perhaps the award for Walker’s best-looking motor goes to his stunning AMG-GT R.
    It truly is a work of art from a design standpoint, and it doesn’t lack in performance either.
    It’s just shy of his Lamborghini’s top speed of 201 mph at 198 mph.
    This Merc’s M178 twin-turbo 4-litre V8 engine generates 510 horse power.

    While the veteran right-back is also a key component of Gareth Southgate’s England set-up.
    His success on the pitch has afforded him a luxury lifestyle off it.
    Walker has amassed a fortune believed to be in the region of £27million.
    And he has invested his money into property, while spending his cash on fast cars.

    SunSport looks into how Walker lives his life.
    Stunning home
    Walker, originally from Sheffield, splashed some of his fortune on a property in Cheshire in 2019.
    It boasts six bedrooms, and was bought as a love nest for him and childhood sweetheart Annie Kilner, before their marriage woes.
    It features a swimming pool, a sizeable marble hot tub, as well as a five-a-side football pitch.
    Most read in Football
    Back in 2020, demanding more privacy, Walker built a 13ft-high, 52ft-wide screen around the property so passers-by couldn’t see inside.
    He won a planning battle, after neighbours complained – calling the structure “unsightly”.
    Walker often shared glimpses of the home on Instagram to his five million followers.
    That included a snap of him watching football on a plush sofa with framed football jerseys on the wall.
    Another photo showed him wearing an apron in the kitchen.
    Keen gamer Walker also showed off where he liked to play Fortnite in a separate picture.

    Walker’s baby mama Lauryn Goodman
    Walker, who earns around £160,000-per-week at the Etihad, bought a £2,5million seaside mansion for his baby mama Lauryn Goodman.
    Amazing cars
    Over the years, Walker has prided himself on filling his garage with some stylish cars.
    In his first season as a Man City player in 2017, he was seen driving a £235,000 Lamborghini Huracan to training.
    One of the fastest cars on the planet, it’s capable of reaching 0-62 mph in just 2.9 seconds.
    It wasn’t the only Lambo parked in the car park – with former teammate Sergio Aguero also being a fan of the supercar and owning one.
    A fan of sporty cars, in 2019 he was seen behind the wheel of a brilliant Mercedes AMG-GT R that has a starting price of £160,000.
    They can reach a top speed of 198 mph and run off a M178 twin-turbo 4-litre V8 engine.
    Another luxury car Walker enjoyed was his £200,000 Bentley Bentayga.
    That became a footballers’ favourite – with fellow England footballer Raheem Sterling also owning a Bentayga.

    Other motors Walker has been spotted with are Mercedes S-Class (from £92,000), and has also driven into training in a £115,000 Audi RS7.
    Tattoos
    Walker is no stranger to getting ink.
    His first ever tattoo was his name, K. Walker with a star next to it.
    However, amusingly he had a second star added next to it after his pals ribbed him that he gave himself such a low rating.
    Walker also has an eye tattoo on his forearm in loving memory of his late grandfather, who introduced him to football.
    He said: “I got this eye for my grandad, who took me to Sheffield United and got me into football. He passed away.
    “I got the eye to say he’s always looking down on me and he guides me through a lot.”
    Walker’s youngest son’s birthday is written in Roman numerals below his chest.

    What Eddie Hearn said to Anthony Joshua after being left stunned by Francis Ngannou’s body

    EDDIE HEARN admitted he was left stunned at the sheer size of Francis Ngannou. The ex-UFC champion takes to the ring for the second time on March 8 in Saudi Arabia against AJ.

    And the two came face to face for the first time at a press conference, where promoter Hearn saw Ngannou up close.
    He was left gobsmacked at the size of the 6ft 4in and 19 stone MMA star.
    Hearn told Queensberry Promotions: “Francis Ngannou was talking and I was looking at him thinking, ‘Look at the size of your head, your neck!’
    “I actually turned to AJ and thought, ‘Actually, you look like a middleweight compared to this guy.’

    “I mean it’s the first time AJ has ever actually competed with anyone who is remotely the same in terms of frame and mass.
    “This guy is bigger. So we hear the stories about how strong he is, we hear the stories about how hard he can punch.
    “I still find it difficult to subscribe to, I don’t believe you can just stroll into the sport and just beat the elite.
    “But he so nearly did it against what many regard as the best heavyweight in the world.

    “So we take him very, very seriously. It’s a fight full of jeopardy but one that if you use your brain, and use your skill and your speed, you should win.”
    Ngannou, 37, dropped Tyson Fury, 35, on his boxing debut last October but lost a controversial decision.
    And with the Gypsy King snubbing a rematch to fight Oleksandr Usyk, 36, for the undisputed crown, Ngannou was forced to look elsewhere.
    But Joshua, 34, who weighed 17st 13lb in his last fight, vowed not to underestimate the Cameroonian like those before him.
    He said: “If Tyson underestimated Ngannou, I sure won’t. Francis has lost the element of surprise with me.
    “We knew Francis had a reputation as the biggest puncher in the world but the surprise was how well he boxed.
    “He was exceptional on the inside and made life very complicated for Tyson. So much so that I do belong to the opinion that he beat Fury.” More

    How Championship is shaping up and who will win £200million Premier League jackpot – SunSport’s mid-season predictions

    WE’RE now firmly into the second half of the race to make the Premier League promised land.Leicester and Ipswich have been setting the pace from the front – although the Tractor Boys have been reeled in recently by the blistering form of Southampton.

    With the transfer window open, we look at what the runners and riders need if they are to up the pace as the clubs make a dash for the winning post and the £200million jackpot prize of top flight football.
    Here SunSport looks at the top 14 teams who are currently in contention – and apologies to Swansea and Millwall down in 15th and 16th.
    I don’t see either as genuine contenders but, hey, this is the Championship, we might be left with egg on our face come May!
    Leicester
    Enzo Maresca’s side are going to be playing top-flight football next season.
    READ MORE IN FOOTBALL
    The squad is too good for the Championship so the focus must be now on building a team, philosophy and identity that will be able to stay in the Premier League.
    The Foxes will need to strengthen in attacking areas because they surely cannot be relying on veteran Jamie Vardy and Kelechi Iheanacho next season.
    Their midfield needs more creativity too. They do look a bit one-paced.
    Inter Milan and Italy midfield ace Stefano Sensi, 28, is said to have agreed to join the club this month in a move that will cost just under £2m.

    Ipswich
    What the Tractor Boys have been achieving this season with the same team that won promotion from League One last term is nothing short of remarkable.
    However, they do lack the strength in depth that rivals such as Southampton boast.
    The ruthless Championship fixture schedule had been taking its toll on Kieran McKenna’s men in recent weeks with Saints chasing them down.
    They sensibly brought in Lewis Travis, who made his debut on loan from Blackburn against Sunderland on Saturday, while attacking midfield ace Jeremy Sarmiento from Spurs came off the bench.
    Conor Chaplin has been superb up front but Ipswich have been eyeing up a loan deal for Bournemouth striker Kieffer Moore while Wigan centre-back Charlie Hughes, 20, is also on the club’s radar.
    Chief scout Sam Williams has been personally watching him this season.
    Southampton
    Russell Martin never doubted that the Saints were going to be in the automatic promotion argument – even when four straight losses in September and a leaky defence at the time made it look unlikely.
    Their 4-0 thumping of Sheffield Wednesday made it 14 wins and five draws from their last 19 unbeaten Championship games.
    But with Kamaldeen Sulemana crocked and a lack of experienced replacements, Martin is keen to add another winger to his ranks to help push the Saints over the line in what is looking like a three-way fight with Ipswich and Leeds for second spot.
    David Brooks from Bournemouth is a realistic option while the Saints are keeping tabs on Manchester United kid Amad Diallo as a loan option after he was superb for Sunderland last season.
    Leeds
    Daniel Farke says the club will be reserved during this window as he is happy with his lot at Elland Road – after a chaotic summer where he was unable to nail down his squad until the last minute.
    The club have been in good form although they can be a little inconsistent. For example, they smashed Ipswich at home, only to lose a few days later at Preston.
    They could do with another left-back with Sam Byram having a string of injury issues while Junior Firpo has not exactly pulled up any trees.
    Rangers ace Borna Baristic could be an option.
    West Brom
    The Baggies need to bolster their attack if they are to be a serious threat in the business end of the season.
    As good as they can be on their day – especially at The Hawthorns – they lack a cutting edge at times. In fact, they are the lowest scorers in the top six.
    Bristol City striker Andreas Weimann is on their radar and West Brom boss Carlos Corberan said he wants someone who has good Championship experience.
    Coventry
    The Sky Blues are building up a nice head of steam right now.
    Their 3-1 comeback win over Leicester means they have now won seven, drawn four and lost just one of their last 12 league games and moved into the top six for the first time this season.
    Last year’s play-off finalists were hurt in the summer by the loss of star players Viktor Gyokeres and Gustavo Hamer.
    Boss Mark Robins has signed this month midfielder Victor Torp in a £2.1m deal from Norwegian top flight club Sarpsborg to fill the void he had not yet filled left by Hamer.
    Their top priority this winter should be to tie down attacking midfielder Callum O’Hare, who scored twice on Saturday, to a new deal as his form has turned around Coventry’s season and his current deal expires this summer.
    Sunderland
    Two things that must happen this month at the Stadium of Light is to keep Jack Clarke and sign a striker.
    The Black Cats look a bit short at the moment of making the play-offs and will have no chance if they fail to secure the above.
    Clarke scored his 13th of the season and is being chased by West Ham, Brentford and Crystal Palace but Sunderland must reject all advances.
    Bournemouth’s Kieffer Moore and Blackburn’s Sam Gallagher are on boss Michael Beale’s radar.
    Hull
    One of the surprise play-off contenders that has emerged this season is Liam Rosenior’s men – but he will be keen to maintain their push beyond this transfer window.
    And the club have already been active in boosting their ranks.
    Bringing in attacking midfielder Fabio Carvalho on loan from Liverpool after he was recalled from RB Leipzig is a great piece of business. Although he flopped in Germany, he is a proven performer in the Championship with Fulham.
    And bringing in experienced former Sheffield United striker Billy Sharp, who was a free agent, could prove to be inspired.
    Middlesbrough
    Michael Carrick’s men brought in veteran right-back Luke Ayling on loan from Leeds and attacking midfielder Finn Azaz from Aston Villa.
    But they do need a striker, like a lot of clubs competing, and must keep hold of man of the moment Hayden Hackney.
    The midfielder has been on fire for Boro and scored the winner against Chelsea to give his side a 1-0 Carabao Cup semi-final first-leg advantage – but Tottenham are preparing a January swoop after keeping a close eye on him.
    Norwich
    Although the Canaries spent most of 2023 sitting in mid-table, this morning despite being 10th they have just two points behind the play-off spots so the first half of 2024 could be far from a write-off if they can get their act together.
    David Wagner is one of several managers chasing Bouremouth’s Moore but an interesting target is United winger Facundo Pellistri, 22, whom they want to bring in on loan.
    United have a good relationship with the Canaries and were happy with how the Norfolk side looked after and developed Brandon Williams a couple of seasons ago.
    Preston
    North End fans are bracing themselves for a boring month with hardly any business expected to be done at Deepdale after a busy summer of activity.
    The team are sitting 11th but are just a couple of points behind the top six.
    Preston have been rumoured to be after Newcastle’s defensive midfielder Isaac Hayden after he was recalled from his loan to Standard Liege.
    Cardiff
    After being under a transfer embargo for a whole year, the Bluebirds can splash the cash this winter – and boss Erol Bulut has made it clear he expects exactly that.
    He wants to make “three or four signings” but a striker is the absolute priority.
    And they have joined the queue for Bournemouth’s Moore.
    He also wants a winger, midfielder and centre-back.
    Watford
    The Hornets would like to bring in a left-back during this window.
    Wesley Hoedt is the only natural left-footer in their defence.
    Valerien Ismael has got Watford into the play-off mix and will go all guns blazing in the remaining 19 games.
    Bristol City
    It’s madness usually to consider a team sitting 14th in mid-January as a serious promotion contender – but, right now, the Robins are exactly that, just four points behind sixth-placed Coventry.
    And one of their targets this month is a controversial one… Bristol Rovers striker Chris Martin.
    READ MORE SUN STORIES
    Martin, 35, only left Ashton Gate last January, to join QPR, and moved to bitter rivals Rovers in the summer where he has been tearing up League One.
    The Robins want a No10 and striker before the end of the month. More

    OnlyFans star Elle Brooke calls out UFC legends Ronda Rousey and Paige VanZant but first wants to fight Astrid Wett

    ELLE BROOKE wants to fight former UFC stars Ronda Rousey and Paige VanZant in a boxing match.OnlyFans star Elle has been trying her luck at influencer boxing where she boasts a 3-1 record and is set for a rematch against former Love Island contestant AJ Bunker at Misfits Boxing 12 on Saturday.

    The model is also looking to face off another nemesis in the adult content world in Astrid Wett, who’s currently top of her list.
    The 26-year-old is then looking to follow in the footsteps of other social media personalities like Jake Paul by crossing paths with former MMA fighters.
    And that is why she would like to face off against UFC Hall of Famer Rousey and former MMA athlete-turned OnlyFans model Paige, whom the Brit wouldn’t mind facing in a bare-knuckle fight.
    Elle told talkSPORT: “A really huge fight like Paige VanZant or Ronda Rousey. Someone like that, but then in between I need that Astrid fight.

    “I don’t think those fights would ever work without that one because that is the money fight, that could be like a main [event].
    “Nate Diaz has fought Jake Paul and then he’s facing another opponent in a couple of months.
    “I know it’s called influencer boxing but it’s a crossover scene. You can get other fighters into the scene [and] I think that would make sense.
    “I think the only people who have done it are Jake Paul, KSI, and Bryce Hall. I would definitely love to put my name on the map by winning against a real fighter.

    “Not that I’m underestimating influencer boxers, but someone that is known to be good, tough, and shocking. I want to be a true underdog and come out on top.
    “I would do bare-knuckle. Apparently, it is better for you because it just grazes your face rather than rattle your brain in your head. Sure, I’ve seen people get their teeth knocked out but okay.”
    Rousey is still regarded as UFC’s greatest female fighter of all time as she enjoyed a four-year undefeated streak that saw her winning all 12 of her fights.
    However, the American bruiser picked up her first loss in 2015 against Holly Holm and never managed to bounce back as she went on to suffer another defeat at the hands of Amanda Nunes a year later.

    Rowdy left Dana White’s promotion that year and crossed over to WWE in 2018 where she went on to dominate the women’s division by becoming RAW and SmackDown Women’s Champion.
    The Baddest Woman on the Planet left the company after SummerSlam in August when she lost to close friend and fellow UFC hero Shayna Baszler.
    The 36-year-old has since been competing in the independent circuit with MMA comrade Marina Shafir, with whom she also appeared in Ring of Honor.
    Rousey hasn’t shown intent to participate in influencer boxing as she is already a major attraction in professional wrestling.
    Meanwhile, Elle is focused on AJ after releasing a bizarre video mocking her rival.

    I won two league titles at Arsenal… a misunderstood team-mate could have been next Ronaldo – he left Adams on the floor

    ARSENAL hero Paul Merson insists Nicolas Anelka was “definitely” destined to become better than Brazil legend Ronaldo Nazario.Anelka, who underwent a stormy career, joined the Gunners from Paris Saint-Germain in 1997 at the tender age of 17 years old and still managed to turn heads immediately after his arrival.

    Merson, who won two titles with the club, spent a few months with the famous striker in north London and was absolutely mesmerised by his talent as he absolutely stood out on the pitch.
    The Sky Sports pundit was also left in awe during training as he witnessed the ex-France international dominating notoriously tough defenders in Tony Adams and Steve Bould “every two minutes”.
    In fact, the former England international watched the then teenager leaving both veteran centre-backs “on their backside” before beating legendary goalkeeper David Seaman.
    Merson told the League of Legends show: “I played with a kid who came over to England and I definitely thought that he was going to be better than the Brazilian Ronaldo – and that was Anelka.

    “When he came over, he was about 17 and he was leaving Tony Adams and Steve Bould on their backside every two minutes.
    “We used to do this one-on-one where we would stand in between the halfway line and the 18-yard box and the defender would start on the 18-yard line.
    “The boss would chip the ball into you and you would have to take on the defender one-on-one and then you’d have to try and beat the goalkeeper. I don’t think he ever missed.
    “He managed to get past the defender, whoever he was doing it against, then Dave Seaman would come out and he would go round him like he wasn’t there.

    “I seriously thought that he was going to be the best in the world – and he should have been. He should have been as good as Ronaldo.”
    Anelka underwent a nomadic career that saw him leaving Arsenal for Real Madrid only two years after his arrival at Highbury, where he won the Double in 1998 and amassed 28 goals in 90 appearances.
    The Frenchman’s stint at the Santiago Bernabeu barely lasted a year and he returned to PSG before coming back to England in 2001 for Liverpool and Manchester City a year later.
    In 2005 the now 44-year-old signed for Fenerbahce but returned to the UK for a third time as he was signed by Bolton a year later.
    And Anelka found himself at top level once more in 2008 when he put pen to paper on a contract with Chelsea where he won the Premier League as well as two FA Cups until his departure in 2012.
    Short stints followed with Shanghai Shenhua, Juventus, West Brom and Mumbai City where he retired in 2015. More
