'It doesn't look great' - Kyle Walker admits he could be forced to remove 'four in a row' tattoo if Man City are stripped of Premier League titles
Kyle Walker has confessed that he may be forced to undergo painful laser surgery to remove a commemorative tattoo if Manchester City are ultimately stripped of their silverware. The veteran defender, who enjoyed a trophy-laden stint at the Etihad Stadium, has a permanent reminder of the club’s historic achievements etched onto his skin.
Manchester City defender Kyle Walker has admitted the possibility of undergoing laser surgery to remove a commemorative tattoo if his club is stripped of Premier League titles. The tattoo, featuring the phrase '4 IN A ROW', honors the club's six consecutive league titles won between 2021 and 2025. An independent commission recently found Manchester City guilty of 114 breaches of Premier League financial regulations, primarily due to suspicions of artificially inflating commercial revenues through illegitimate sponsorship agreements.
The club strongly denies the accusations and has appealed the verdict, which could lead to severe sporting sanctions including hefty fines, transfer embargoes, and points deductions that may place the team in the Championship. If the decision stands, authorities could also retrospectively strip City of the titles Walker won during the specified period.
During a recent appearance on talkSPORT, Walker confirmed the tattoo and stated he might have to remove it if the club faces honor stripping. He expressed his belief in the team's achievements and defended them despite the controversy surrounding their legacy.
