Career edit

Walker made his professional debut for Coventry City on 28 December 2008 as a substitute in a 2–0 Football League Championship win against Sheffield Wednesday.[2]

He made his second appearance in a 0–0 draw against Charlton Athletic at the Ricoh Arena.

Walker joined Nuneaton Town on loan on 28 October 2009,[2] before joining them on a permanent deal on 1 April 2010 after being released by Coventry City.[3]

After a successful term at Brackley Town, Walker joined National League North rivals AFC Telford United in May 2019 on a one-year deal.[4]

Walker played for over three seasons at the Shropshire club, making over 75 appearances and eventually going on to become club captain. His contract was ended by mutual termination in January 2022, which lead to him joining Leamington FC on a permanent transfer on 26 January 2022.
