It’s safe to say that Kyle Walker will never be a Broadway star.
In fairness, considering he already fulfilled his dream of becoming a professional footballer at the highest level, we sincerely doubt making a career in the arts is on his bucket list.
That’s definitely a good thing, because in the part of the human rain where some people might find a note or two, Walker has a massive cavernous void containing a rogue tumbleweed and a sign which reads, ‘Mind the Gap.’
To get everyone pumped for their first Champions League match since 2011 (or possibly in an effort to deafen their following on social media), Tottenham Hotspur shared a video of Walker belting out the competition’s official anthem… without a backing track.
While he got the lyrics 100% correct – we can’t fault him there at all – his singing leaves a lot to be desired.

Ok, admittedly the video was pretty entertaining and Walker was a good sport about it, but some Spurs fans aren’t happy with their club.
A lot of them see Walker’s tuneless wreck of a rendition as an embarrassment and have been calling for the video to be erased from existence.
This needs to be deleted immediately 😩🔫
