!I understand that my position as a professional footballer brings responsibility," he said

Manchester City's Kyle Walker has apologised after holding a sex party in the middle of the coronavirus lockdown in the United Kingdom last week. 

The Sun revealed on Sunday that Walker and a friend had paid for two escorts last Tuesday despite the strong self-isolation measures in place across Europe.

“I want to take this opportunity to issue a public apology for the choices I made last week which have resulted in a story today (Sunday) about my private life in a tabloid newspaper,” Walker said in a statement.

“I understand that my position as a professional footballer brings the responsibility of being a role model. As such, I want to apologise to my family, friends, football club, supporters and the public for letting them down.

“There are heroes out there making a vital difference to society at the moment, and I have been keen to help support and highlight their amazing sacrifices and life-saving work over the past week.

“My actions in this matter are in direct contrast to what I should have been doing regarding the lockdown. And I want to reiterate the message: Stay home, stay safe.”
