England officials might prevent Kyle Walker’s former partner from being close to the national team at Euro 2024.

Walker, a key member of Gareth Southgate’s squad, is a veteran of the 2018 World Cup, Euro 2020, and the 2022 World Cup. Concerns have been raised about potential distractions for him while in Germany. The families of the England squad are allowed to attend the games during the tournament. However, FA chiefs are taking steps to prevent Goodman, Walker’s partner, from attending any matches.

Reports have surfaced about Goodman’s determination to be in Germany to see Kyle play, despite his denial and the FA’s efforts to prevent her from accessing tickets. Officials are prepared to block her from joining the family group by any means necessary, as they fear her presence could disrupt Walker’s performance. On the other hand, Walker’s wife, Kilner, and their children are expected to attend as part of the family group. Goodman has been insisting that she will find a way to obtain tickets and travel to Germany, which could lead to significant problems.

While tickets will not be issued directly to her, there is still a concern that she may find a way to acquire them. The focus remains on keeping Southgate and his squad undistracted during the games. Amidst the ongoing situation, Kilner has advised Goodman to avoid attending the Euro this summer. Walker’s concern is that the potential drama and attention surrounding Goodman’s presence would be an unwelcome distraction for the team.

He is determined to stay focused on his performance on the pitch, despite being affected by the external gossip. Walker emphasized the need for breathing space and expressed his effort to move forward and do what’s best for his children amidst the relentless spotlight.
