Kyle Walker

Michel Salgado believes Tottenham full back would be a good fit at the Bernabeu

Michel Salgado believes former side Real Madrid should make a move for Tottenham full back Kyle Walker this summer and not Inter counterpart Maicon.

The Brazilian looks set to complete a move to the Bernabeu, but the 36-year-old believes that England international Walker would be a better fit for Jose Mourinho’s side.

“He [Walker] moves up the field like a bullet,” Salgado told Marca. “He is really quick and he does a lot of damage in attack, while he is better at the back. For me, he is the best, but his price could make a transfer impossible.

“Brazilian full-backs are all the same. Spectacular while moving up the field, but they create problems to any team in defence. It is impossible to create damage in attack and defend at the same time. You have to see what Mourinho wants.”
